The camp, sponsored by the Camden-Rockport Historical Society, is held on site at the old historic Conway Homestead Complex. Days are filled with candle dipping, journal writing with a quill pen, hand cranking ice cream, old games, learning songs, dances, playing tin whistles, and presenting an original historic drama.  Sessions begin July 12, July 19 and July 26. More information is available here.
