Chewonki Foundation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Chewonki Foundation is a non-profit institution in Wiscasset, Maine, that runs educational programs with an environmental focus.
Founded in 1915 as a boy's summer camp, the Foundation now runs a four month high school program (the Maine Coast Semester), a summer camp, an organic farm, an outreach program where rehabilitated animals are brought to schools and libraries, as well as week long environmental education programs for school groups around New England. Don Hudson is the President of the foundation, Willard Morgan is the director of the Maine Coast Semester program, and Garth Altenburg is the director of the summer camp.
The Chewonki Foundation is located on a 400 acre peninsula between Westport Island and the town of Woolwich. The peninsula protrudes into Montsweag Bay.
