From the Directors:
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for entrusting
your son to us, and for the many fine things you've said about Wildwood.
We are eagerly looking forward to another wonderful summer in Maine.
There are still a few openings available in the Cedar/Pines and
Hemlocks, so if any of your friends have been curious about Wildwood,
please urge them to contact us as soon as possible.
Departure and Return Dates:
We will be traveling to Wildwood this year on Sunday, June 29th,
and returning on Friday, August 15th (if your not joining us for
Father/Son Post Camp), Exact details will be sent to you in future
mailings.
Visiting Days: You are all invited to spend a day with your son(s)
in the beautiful woods of Maine on either Friday, July 25th or Saturday,
July 26th. If you are unable to attend on those days, you are welcome
to join us on any day, obviously just call us in advance to plan
a date that’s convenient. Parents with brothers attending
Wildwood are welcome to join us for both visiting days.
Camper Outfit and Uniform:
Once again, Cloz Company will be our exclusive camp outfitter. In
February you will get a beautiful new catalogue with a detailed
list of all the necessary clothing and equipment for the upcoming
summer.There will also be a link to Cloz Co. with this summer’s
clothing list and order forms here.
And…..don’t forget, Tri-Staters can go to the Cloz Superstore
in Rye to see and try on everything first hand. In an effort to
keep our campers cool and dry, we have redeisgned our intercamp
jerseys with the new microfiber type material worn by professional
athletes today. Veteran campers do not need to switch to the new
uniforms and buy the new style. But, if your son(s) have outgrown
the "old" Wildwood jersey, we hope you like the new style
and material.
Extra Programs:
There has been an outstanding response to the additional programs
in the Wildwood curriculum. If you are interested in either Tennis
Plus, Golf on the Links, Ice Hockey, or the 22nd Annual Father/Son
Post Camp, please send in your registration form as soon as possible,
as most of these programs fill up very quickly!!
All forms and information are listed under "Special
Programs" on the For Parents page of this site.
Second Deposit:
Just a reminder that the second deposit of $1500.00 is due by December
1st.
Updating Information:
Please inform us of any changes you may have incurred since you
filled out the camp application. These changes may include e-mail
address, phone numbers (home, work, summer or cell) or home address.
You can call or email
us of any changes.
Travel and Accommodations for Parents'
Visiting Day:
The drive to camp is pleasant, all on highways, with the exact directions
being sent to you in July. The nearest commercial airport to Wildwood
is in Portland, and is serviced by Delta, Continental, US Air and
Jet Blue. Rental cars are available from Hertz, Avis, Budget, and
National, and the one hour drive from the airport to camp is pretty
simple. Perhaps it’s more convenient to fly to Boston and
drive from there (about 150 miles).
AS ALL CAMPS IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD SHARE THE SAME
VISITING WEEKEND, WE STRONGLY SUGGEST THAT YOU MAKE YOUR TRAVEL
PLANS IMMEDIATELY, ESPECIALLY RESERVING FLIGHTS AND CAR RENTALS.
The list of accommodations below is small and many of the places
may already be booked so may we suggest that you get in touch with
the Maine Innkeepers Association (207) 865-6100. Or, we suggest
you GOOGLE Bridgton Maine Inns and Hotels for comprehensive list
