Founded in 1946, Camp Med-O-Lark is a co-ed Maine summer camp for children ages 8-16 situated on a pristine lake in Washington, ME. Med-O-Lark offers an all-elective program in which campers create their own schedule from a wide array of activities such as performing arts, fine arts, sports, waterfront and much more. Med-O-Lark has always been an open, diverse, non-competitive community, where children have forged lasting friendships!

Camp philosophy




The underlying philosophy of Med-O-Lark is that children will thrive and develop through individual choice and self-expression. Accordingly, Med-O-Lark encourages young people to experience activities such as drawing, painting, dancing, acting, cooking, fencing, sailing, waterskiing and much more. All instruction is conducted within an elective program, chosen by each camper individually. Out-of-camp trips are also chosen by the campers themselves. Campers may choose from a wide array of options such as bike trips, beach trips, rafting, arts fairs, hikes through state parks, ocean cruises, excursions to Freeport, Summer Stock theater performances and many more. Evening programs are also an extension of Med-O-Lark’s philosophy as campers perform, present and lead others as they express themselves and share their talents.
