At The Marcus Lewis Day Camp, campers can specialize in artistic, athletic and even technology based activities that are specifically aligned with their own interests. Teens choose individually while juniors choose with their group. There are more than 100 rotating activities that are available at various times during the summer and they are taught by professionals. Our 5:1 camper/counselor ratio is based on personnel over the age of 18; we do not use counselors-in-training (CITs) in any type of supervisory roles. Additionally we offer specialty programs: horseback, drama, cooking, golf, dance, tennis, sewing/scrapbooking and day trip adventures.

Our horseback component is taught at the renown Harmony Horseback Stables located next door in Littleton. Horseback camp is open to all levels of riders from beginner through advanced.

Our Day Trip Adventures Camp focuses on the many fantastic resources available to us here in New England. Whether it's white-water rafting, mountain bike trip, paintball or an afternoon at Water Country, we introduce campers to a wide array of activities.

In "The Chef's Kitchen," our culinary specialist gives campers a fantastic hands-on experience that is fun, educational and tasty. Everything from how to safely and effectively use kitchen utensils to following a recipe to perfection is covered. Of course campers will have ample opportunity to consume their creations on a daily basis!

Our golf camp is held at the Red Tail Course on Devens which has been rated as the best public course in the state. Campers receive professional instruction on all of their strokes before testing their skills on nine holes.

Tennis is played at The Marcus Lewis Tennis Center where trained professionals give the campers great instruction along with plenty of fun and games. We have a completely separate website for this program because of its comprehensiveness.

Lastly, our Let's Dance! program is held in our Teen Center/dance area where our campers learn everything from Hip-hop to the Merengue. Our instructor for this program was even a successful contender on the FOX TV show, "So You Think You Can Dance?".

The camp operates its own buses and offers transportation service from as far east as Newton, north to Chelmsford, west to Leominster and south to Marlborough. Our program reviews have been extraordinary, such that we are the only camp we know of that will offer a money-back guarantee if a camper's experience in any of our camps is less than exceptional. From 2004-2008, the program has won the Reader's Choice Award that is given through the Community Newspaper Company/Boston Herald as the highest rated program in the area.

Review of The Marcus Lewis Day Camp 5 out of 5 stars

A really incredible camp

Reviewed by: mavenmaestro, 2004-11-27 00:00:00 (Modified: 0000-00-00 00:00:00)

After finding The Marcus Lewis Day Camp on mysummercamps.com last year, I returned to find a travel-abroad program for my oldest son. Having come upon the ability to review The MLDC, I thought I would do so to help other parents. My children have been to three different day camps in the Massachusetts area; all very pricey, but worth it if my children have a great time. Unfortunately that was not always the case. After coming across this camp on this web directory, I thorougly examined the website, looked over the material and even called a few of their references. I signed up two of my children. Hey, this camp even guaranteed that the campers would love it, so how I could not? Without babbling on and on, this camp was truly amazing. It's the first day-camp my kids have been to where ALL of the staff were older (my biggest hang up is staffing since these are the people who I am entrusting the safety of my kids to). Secondly, the program is so varied that the kids were constantly stimulated and would always run to the car to tell me about their day. My children, Robbie and Marie, are extremely different in personality, however since they had the ability to decide their respective programs it worked out wonderfully. I don't often write reviews like this, however I remember the difficulty I went through in trying to find a camp and hope that my words might save someone else the trouble. Best wishes!
