Camp Androscoggin
Camp Androscoggin is an all-boys summer camp in Wayne, Maine, and one of the oldest in the state. It is ACA (American Camp Association) accredited.〔(Find a Camp: ''Camp Androscoggin'' )〕 It was founded in 1907 by Edward M. Healy,〔(Camp Androscoggin founding date ); ''A Handbook of the best private schools of the United States and Canada'' (1915); Vol. 1 p. 234; retrieved 3 April 2011〕 a Department Head at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York.

The camp has an average intake of between 225 and 275 boys aged 8 to 15 years, and takes enrollments nationally and internationally.
==History==
Camp Androscoggin was established in 1907 on Sans Souci Island, renamed "Androscoggin Island" over a century ago, in Lake Androscoggin. During the camp's inaugural summer, only 7 campers were enrolled. In 1937, a new "Junior Camp" was added on the lake's shore, which was initially for campers aged 8 to 11 years. The two camps briefly combined during World War II due to a fuel shortage, and combined permanently inland in 1972 after a fire. Androscoggin was the site of the third and fourth Seeds of Peace camps in 1995-96.〔(''Seeds of Peace'' Camp )〕〔Sara Rimer, ("For 130 Arab and Israeli Teen-Agers, Maine Camp Is Where Peace Begins" ), ''The New York Times'', September 3, 1995.〕〔Gloria Negri, ("Balkan youths embrace diversity Camp offers forum to explore fears about war, others" ), ''The Boston Globe'', August 22, 1995 .〕
