Friends Camp is a caring and accepting community that offers youth campers a range of creative activities and lots of zany fun. The Quaker testimonies of equality, peace, simplicity, and community are the day-to-day values that we try to live by at Friends Camp.
Friends Camp is a co-ed, overnight summer camp for youth from ages 7 to 17. We have sixty-five acres of fields and woods, with a waterfront area on the beautiful shores of China Lake. The camp is located fifteen miles east of Augusta, Maine in the town of South China.
Campers choose from elective programs that include sports, sailing, art, drama, music, ceramics, photography, and a wide variety of creative and unique activities. Friends Camp welcomes youth from all backgrounds to our diverse community.

Welcome to the Friends Camp web page! As a potential camper’s parent or as a future camper please take a look at the For Parents and For Campers sections on left side of this page. If you wish to know more, your next stop should the FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) button. Parents, you will find that the Summer Program – Our Program, Schedule, and Program Fees sections of this web page will give you the foundational information you will need to determine if Friends Camp is the right fit for your child and for your summer schedule. 

We also have a directions link to help you find Friends Camp. In addition, you can easily find and print the following information and forms: camp brochure, registration form, camper parent handbook, health forms, and reminder list in For Parent or in the Summer Program section.
