Summer at Brookwood is located on the sprawling and beautiful campus of Brookwood School in Manchester, Massachusetts just minutes from RT 128 and down the street from our stunning coastline and Beverly Farms.
Most campers arrive by car each day to Summer at Brookwood. Campers who live close to campus may walk or ride their bikes with parent permission.
This year we are partnering with Manchester Sailing to provide transportation to and from our programs midday. We are also providing counselor-supervised walks from Landmark School’s morning program to Summer at Brookwood’s afternoon camp.
Fruit and a crunchy snack are provided for campers during our afternoon programming. Families are welcome to pack a snack for their child, if they prefer, and all campers should pack a reusable water bottle each day.
This year, we are partnering with Relish Catering to provide a lunch option for our camp families. Families can choose from a menu of options to be delivered to Summer at Brookwood each day. Families who choose not to participate in Relish Catering’s lunch program are welcome to pack lunch for their child. Click here to learn more about our lunch program.
Summer at Brookwood leadership works closely with our camp nurse to make sure the staff is aware of allergies and food restrictions. While our campers are encouraged to share in many of our camp settings, we do not allow our campers to share food bought at home with other campers without prior permission from families. We are a nut-aware campus so we do ask that campers do not bring in anything that contains nuts.
YES! We hope you can join us on January 11th from 2:00pm - 3:30pm for our Open House Camp Preview. If you can’t make it on January 11th, here are some other special events you are welcome to attend.

Activities can be adapted for indoors in the case of rain. Brookwood’s expansive campus provides plenty of options for indoor facilities in the case of inclement weather.
Summer at Brookwood should be a fun and inclusive experience for our campers. Our discipline policy helps campers feel safe, heard and respected and ensures open communication between home and camp.
Summer at Brookwood is composed of both seasoned Brookwood educators and trained camp counselors. All Summer at Brookwood employees attend training and orientation prior to their first day of camp.
Campers must turn 3 by September 1st in order to join Summer at Brookwood. We have programs for ages 3 - 14 to choose from.
Yes, all campers should be potty trained, but accidents happen so we encourage our youngest campers to send in an extra change of clothes each day. However, if there is a pattern of toileting accidents, your child will not be considered potty trained and their continued enrollment may be at risk.
Staffing is based on enrollment and because we work with outside vendors, refunds will not be granted after March 31st.
Please contact [email protected] to communicate a change in pick-up plans for your camper(s). Last-minute changes should be communicated via phone to ensure our staff receives the message in time. Families can call 978-526-4500 to speak to our front desk receptionist.
