The Andro Spirit

Our campers come from diverse backgrounds—urban, suburban, and rural—all over the U.S. and abroad. Many are sports-oriented and look forward to a summer of improving their skills and enjoying the competition among friends and rival camps.

The Androscoggin experience is designed to be equally exciting, challenging, and rewarding to campers interested in individual activities. Our program encourages and helps maintain a diversity of interests among campers. That diversity enhances the overall camping experience for every boy.

But what is Camp Androscoggin really about? Why does this camp inspire such strong feelings and treasured memories? It’s more than the setting. It’s more than the program and the facilities.

It’s the Andro spirit.

Rich Edwards, like both his sons, was a camper and counselor, and his grandsons now attend. When he was interviewed by a respected guidebook to camps, he described his family’s experience this way.  “The Andro spirit is something special and unique…it’s helping, caring, giving, sharing, learning, teaching, having fun…something wonderful to experience but hard to describe.” 

We proudly have many second, third, and  even fourth-generation campers. Many others begin their own tradition and then return year after year. All of them together welcome first-year campers who, within a few days, begin to feel a part of the Camp Androscoggin family.  

Our videos will give you more insights into the Andro spirit.  We hope you will want to learn even more about us and become part of the Androscoggin tradition.

For Your Son,

Let’s Make Plans Together For The Summer Of His Life
