Agassiz Village

Helping children have Fun, Explore, Collaborate and Thrive Agassiz Village was founded in 1935 at its present lakeside location in Poland Maine by Mr. & Mrs.
(12)

Harry E. Burroughs. Then, as now, Agassiz gave children the opportunity to escape the hardship of their daily lives. Originally the camp served boys who worked as newsboys, bootblacks, or other street vendors. The boys learned basic job skills, practiced school subjects, experienced outdoor living, and developed many life skills. The camp opened its doors to an adaptive program for physically disa

bled campers in the late 1950's, and girls joined the camp in 1973 when it became co-ed. Both changes are still part of the program foundation today, and campers come from all over the Greater Boston area to experience this unique program. Today, Agassiz Village serves nearly 500 children each summer. The camp offers a safe and healthy environment where children’s smiles and laughter create lifelong friendships and provide a lifetime of memories. More importantly, our campers have the opportunity to embark on a life-changing experience. Agassiz Village campers take with them our values of responsibility, self-confidence, service to others and a commitment to learning.

Agassiz Village Pride - enough said!

NEW BLOG POST - Today, we're thrilled unveil an exciting new space we'll be using this summer - our new Serenity Cabin! A group of dedicated volunteers led by amazing AV alum Nancy Glynn Santos worked tirelessly throughout last weekend to transform our beautiful but previously under-utilized camp library into a serene space filled with books, cozy nooks, puzzles, and more, where campers can go to decompress and relax. The Serenity Cabin will also host our social worker - a new position we added in 2022 to better serve kids struggling with social emotional, behavioral, and/or mental health challenges as needed. We hope you enjoy this video tour led by Nancy - make sure to read even more about the library-to-Serenity Cabin-transformation and check out additional photos in our latest blog post: www.agassizvillage.org/serenitycabinreno
