This seven-day expedition takes us hiking through beautiful forests, mountains and landscapes while you get to know your new camp mates or create stronger bonds with the friends you came with. The team work you use to paddle, further seals the bond. We canoe in a remote lake where we swim, listen to the call of the loons, and explore islands and camp. We boulder up and through a hidden brook in its secret swimming holes and waterfalls, finishing with a rappel by a waterfall.
Readiness:
- Must be able to go multiple days backpacking.

Payment Policies
Please note that this coming year, you may not see credit card fees included in the base cost of camp, which is a change from previous years. We’re happy to process your credit card payment, but please be aware that there may be a convenience fee for paying with a credit card.
We are waiting to hear from our registration provider, CampDoc, about what it will all look like when registration opens. We will update as soon as we have the information from them.
We are trying to make Morse Hill accessible to more families, so we will use a sliding scale again this summer. In order to provide the best experience possible for campers and offer a fair wage to our staff, our sliding payment scale should more fairly distribute the cost of summer camp. All camps are listed at their base cost, with increases to the base cost based on self-attested income. We appreciate your understanding as we work to provide a more equitable model for our families and community.
We have included many coupons to help you save money, such as paying early, paying with a personal check, multi camp discounts and sibling discounts. We also offer scholarships to families on a need basis. To apply, please reach us at summer@morsehill.com and our office staff will assist you in the application process.
Lastly, we ask for a 1/3 deposit so you do not have to pay so much up front.
PAY BY CHECK TO AVOID CREDIT CARD FEES.
ADDITIONAL $13 OFF FOR PAYING IN FULL 2 MONTHS BEFORE CAMP STARTS, SIBLING CAMPER OR MULTI CAMPS.
