Sorry, We do not do registration of campers online at this time.
2008 Camping Season:
- Weeks 1-4 are for anyone who is 8 to 18 years old. Weeks 5 and 6 are only for those who are between 14 and 18. To attend the Junior weeks, the young camper must turn eight years of age by the start of school in the fall. To attend Senior weeks a camper must be at least 14 or turn 14 no later than September 30th. Please honor our request.
- When all is filled out, get it back in the mail quickly. Early bird discount is $10 off on full payments postmarked by June 15th.
- Why not get a friend to sign up and come to camp with you. Let’s see if we can fill every single week this summer! THIS YEAR THERE IS A SPECIAL INCENTIVE TO RECRUIT A FRIEND. There will be $30 discount to any camper who brings a new camper (never been to Gander Brook) to camp. This $30 discount could be applied in one of two ways: (1) $30 off the camper fee, or (2) $5 applied to canteen and $25 applied to camper fee. This discount does not apply to a sibling brought to camp. You can accumulate as many discounts as you can up to a full campership valued at $255. So recruit one and save $30, recruit two and save $60, recruit 3 and save $90, etc.
- Any questions, give us a call at 603-647-8800 from 10:00am to 9:00pm.
- A note to our staff members taking advantage of the $30.00 discount. Every year there is confusion about fees and discounts for staff members volunteering at Gander Brook during the summer. Please note the following:
- The discount is only good for YOUR children who are attending the same week(s) you are serving. If your child is staying longer than you are, you will have to follow the regular fee schedule. See the registration card for details.
- You may only take advantage of TWO discounts; the staff discount and the 2nd family member discount. You may NOT use the early bird discount. You may NOT combine the staff and early bird discounts. If you have questions, please call us.

- Gander Brook Canoe Trip 2008: Plans are being made for the 2008 Jackman Bow trip. Campers who wish to participate should be enrolled for both 5th and 6th week and there is an additional $50 charge for the trip. John and David Morrish will be leading the trip, one of the girl counselors will be asked to come along and that will leave room for 9 campers. We will leave camp early Saturday morning, 8/2 and return to camp Monday evening 8/4. All canoes, tents, food and tools will be provided, only a change of clothes and a few personal items will need to be packed by campers. Please contact John Morrish at Morrishdad@aol.com if you plan to come and include payment for the trip when you register for camp. The trip has proven to be one of the highlights of the summer for several campers over the years, come join the fun!!
- Although NO PROMISES can be made, please put any special request or concerns in writing.
