About Camp Walt Whitman
From the moment you arrive on the shores of Lake Armington you will be surrounded by New Hampshire's beautiful White Mountains and by an amazing group of people. Each summer over 200 staff members from across the globe converge and form some of the best friends of their life. Last year, our staff came to us from 40 states and over 25 countries. Staff comes back to camp summer after summer because of the people.

Our staff, which is amongst the best in the camping industry, have a passion for working with children and enjoy sharing their knowledge and experience.
Days are filled with exciting activities.

A day at camp is a blast!
You will challenge yourself on hikes and waterskiing, but you will also have the opportunity to accomplish your personal goals. We want you to gain a wealth of new experiences. Travel throughout New England; gain valuable work experience. We feel that if you have the summer of your life our campers will too, and they will remember you for a lifetime!
