Company Profile
Beam Camp
Company Overview
Beam is a summer camp in Strafford, NH that focuses on skill-building, collaborative challenge, responsibility and mentorship. Campers ages 10-17 collaborate on a spectacular project, which helps kids explore what it means to make things with their own bodies and brains and how that kind of creativity is relevant and applicable to everything in their lives. They transform ideas into artifacts and personal achievement into community success. They also have a lot of fun.
The centerpiece of the program is the Beam Project. Each summer, Beam commissions a unique large-scale collaborative endeavor, ranging from the conceptual to the structural, built by self-directed camper teams with on-call support from staff.
Beam has two lakes and sits within a 750 acre conservation reserve of mountain and forest. Among Beam's resources are a well-equipped fabrication wood shop and metal shop, digital lab, art/ceramics studio, basketball court, two large athletic fields and outdoor fire pit.
