Founded in 1910, Camp Mataponi is a traditional overnight camp for girls, dedicated to enriching young lives for over a century. Our mission is to foster each girl's personal growth in a warm, nurturing environment where the joyful spirit of generations thrives on the shores of Sebago Lake. Our philosophy centers on instilling core values, teaching appreciation for others, and encouraging girls to explore new skills. We believe healthy competition within a fun, supportive atmosphere helps campers tap into their adventurous sides. The emphasis is always on being the best version of oneself, a principle echoed throughout camp in inspirational messages. The culture of Mataponi is a carefully balanced blend of creative fun, friendly competition, and community appreciation, all within a safe and beautiful setting. Under the dedicated, hands-on leadership of owners Marcy and Dan Isdaner—who have over 25 years of experience—we partner with families to build each camper's character and confidence. Their approach is supported by a seasoned administrative team, many of whom return for decades. We are committed to safety and excellence in our staffing. Our counselors are personally interviewed and selected for their warmth, adaptability, and experience with children, undergoing thorough reference and background checks. This ensures a supportive environment where lifelong friendships are formed. Camp Mataponi successfully blends cherished traditions—like classic camp songs and signature events—with modern activities and facilities. Here, girls create memories that last a lifetime, summer after summer.
