2025 Summer Camp Registration Now Open!

The concept began in 2003 with a local Cops & Bobbers event. Over the course of the week, both tribal and community children could engage in the outdoors through fishing, archery, and a host of other fun outdoor activities under the watchful eyes of local volunteer law enforcement officers.

Now the flagship program of the Maine Youth Fish & Game Association – we’re able to provide a host of activities for 216 children each summer who are taught by professional camp staff and experts in their fields. Including but not limited to:

  • Range Safety & Marksmanship
  • Archery
  • Wilderness Survival
  • Fishing
  • Team Building Games
  • Canoeing/Kayaking
  • Wildlife Preservation
  • Entomologists
  • Biologist
  • Hunters Safety

Our program & its activities are held at our Pickerel Pond facility (44.9713° N, 68.4531° W) for youth ages 8 to 15 – with daily busing provided to/from the Dr. Lewis S. Libby School in Milford (12 miles). We offer a one week (Monday-Friday) day camp experience with one overnight for youths aged 12-15.

Cost of our camp remains affordable thanks to generous donations from the community. Additional scholarships are available for those with financial needs.

$250 youth aged 8-11
$300 youth aged 12-15

About our Camp Director

My name is Morgin Cleary and I am honored to accept the position of Summer Camp Director. I am beyond excited to continue to be a part of the Maine Youth Fish and Game Association. I have spent the last 7 summers and some winters out at Pickerel Pond and I can honestly say it is one of my favorite places. I started as a counselor for both summer and winter camp in 2018. In my opinion, the best part of this organization is watching kids from all different walks of life fall in love with the Maine outdoors. I look forward to, what I’m sure will be, another fantastic summer!
