BRYANT POND – The Maine Conservation School has received a $25,000 grant from the Stephen and Tabitha King Foundation to improve and renovate camp bunkhouses.

This year campers will stay in improved facilities at the Maine Conservation School Bryant Pond campus, due to the generosity of the Kings. Improvements and renovations have been under way since late last year and will be completed before the start of the summer season.

“These improvements ensure that our campers have a safe, comfortable and enjoyable experience. I would like to publicly thank the Kings for their generosity and commitment to the young people of Maine” said Executive Director Scott Olsen.

The Summer Camp season will be held June 26 though Aug. 26. Programs vary from one to four weeks in length. For almost 50 years, the Maine Conservation School’s camp and school programs have introduced children and adults to a unique blend of outdoor fun, environmental education and practical outdoor skills.
