    Overview

    Camp Burgess is an overnight camp that offers one and two-week sessions for boys ages 7 to 16. With their fellow cabin mates, campers will explore our 300 acre property, go on great adventures, challenge themselves on ropes course and climbing tower, learn outdoor living skills, build things and play an endless array of games on our courts, fields and fresh water ponds. There is something for everyone at Burgess.

    Founded in 1928, Burgess is located on beautiful Spectacle Pond, Cape Cod, across from our sister Camp Hayward, which started in 1961. Campers will gain independence, build community and foster strong friendships. Our brother-sister structure allows Burgess campers to benefit from an all-boy environment while also experiencing safe and positive opportunities for co-ed social interaction. Come feel the spirit and positive energy that makes Burgess a one of a kind overnight camp.
