Hands on experience

I feel confident my children get hands on experience between the touch tank, sailing the boats then the cleaning and maintenance.  I believe it keeps different aged children of different learning abilities engaged and learning all day long.

I want to come back!

I liked being here and want to come back (next summer). It feels good to be here.  I learned a lot of new things like sailing, rowing, and about sea creatures. I went outside my comfort zone and it made me feel good about myself. My personality changed a lot – didn’t really like to talk to people.  I feel I’ve opened up.  I liked the whole thing.

My daughter jumps out of bed for this

I chose BSSC because it is one of those programs that my daughter jumps out of bed in the morning to go to.  Pauline has a great staff and they engage the children.

She enjoyed the crafts

I liked being with my friends and doing crafts about the ocean.

Each day ended with a smile

We did not hesitate to sign our children up for multiple sessions and we are so glad that we did! Our daughters ended each day of camp with big smiles on their faces and stories of their daily adventures.

An inspirational program

BSSC created a program that inspired her, it became something she looked forward to everyday. BSSC also created a program that was nurturing for students with diverse interest and learning styles.

Right here in East Boothbay

We loved the fun, educational experience of her being in nature and on the water. The connection with Bigelow is great! It makes for a wonderful place-based, outdoor education (and fun!) right here in East Boothbay.
