Gloucester Adventure Camp
Outside with your kids since 1976...
GMS Adventure Camp fosters a sense of wonder, environmental stewardship, and critical
thinking skills. The open spaces of Essex County serve as a living classroom for campers to learn, appreciate and understand the natural resources of the greater Cape Ann area.
As of the 2010 season, GMS camp is set up to accept credit card payments via Paypal – under limited circumstances and when cleared in advance by our director, Jo-Anne Crawford.
Much as we would love to accept credit card payments from all of our camper families, each credit card transaction costs us a significant percentage in processing fees. monitor web page for changes We are a small non-profit organization that operates on a small budget. Please understand that we prefer to reserve any and all additional funds for our camp enrichment fund and also to assist local families with camp scholarships.
Last Summer, as our 09 campers are aware, we housed three chickens on Ram Island. They were a constant source of entertainment and, as an added bonus, ate their share of Island bugs as well as our household food scraps.
Jeff built them a luxury condo on the mainland for the winter and they continue to lay eggs regularly… a testament to their contentedness.
