Camp Lawroweld Project
Camp Lawroweld was originally constructed as “North Woods Maine Camp” for the boys of Yale University. Built around 1900, this post and beam lodge has one of the largest stone fireplaces in the state of Maine. The camp is situated on beautiful Lake Weld, a natural glacial lake surrounded by mountains.
Volunteers on this project will help with multiple projects throughout the camp, including plumbing and electrical, as well as renovating the boys bathroom, adding a porch to the medical building, staining the lodge, pouring a concrete pad, and some fencing.
Participants are responsible for their own travel expenses to and from the project.
Three meals a day, accident insurance, and local housing are free in exchange for your volunteer labor.
