Our Staff

The Camp Nonesuch staff is comprised of a select group of talented individuals who promote and maintain a caring and supportive learning environment for children. They are chosen for the diversified individual strengths that they bring to our program. As a result, we are able to offer a wide range of engaging activities. We maintain a camper to counselor ratio of 5:1.

Our History

Camp Nonesuch has shared the shores of Nonesuch Pond for over 45 years, holding the same guiding principles and philosophy since its founding in 1980.

During its inaugural summer, Camp Nonesuch welcomed just a handful of children, but as word grew, more and more children have come to enjoy the sunny shores of Nonesuch Pond, the rustic feel of its wooded property, and the fun and creative activities the counseling staff has offered over the subsequent summers.

Formerly Camp Mary Day, the property was owned and operated by the Newton Girl Scout Council. All of the buildings on the camp grounds date back to the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s.
