Camps Kenwood & Evergreen

What Camps Kenwood & Evergreen does

Camps Kenwood & Evergreen operates a brother-sister overnight summer camp at 114 Eagle Pond Road, Wilmot, New Hampshire, serving children ages 8–15 since 1930 (Kenwood for Boys) and 1950 (Evergreen for Girls). The business runs two gender-specific programs sharing the same campus, each capped at approximately 130 campers per session, with a 3:1 camper-to-counselor ratio, bunks of 6–8 campers and 2–3 counselors, and 20+ structured activity options across athletics, arts, aquatics, and adventure. Session lengths include a 6.5-week Full Summer ($16,750 tuition), a 3-week First Half session ($11,000), and a one-week Rookie Week introductory program ($1,999, credited toward future tuition).

The revenue model is direct-to-consumer one-time seasonal tuition, supplemented by Early Bird discounts (up to $1,200), 5% Alumni and 5% Sibling discounts, camp store sales through Amerasport, and ancillary services (ShipCamps luggage shipping, Dartmouth Coach transportation, Colonial Pharmacy medication fulfillment). Enrollment, paperwork, and parent communications run entirely on the company's own web properties integrated with CampMinder (database/parent portal), CampInTouch (enrollment platform), and the Campanion mobile app (iOS/Android) which posts daily camp photos at 10am and 7pm. Go-to-market is direct: prospective families schedule tours and director calls via Calendly, attend new-camper parties in Boston and New York, and are nurtured through the weekly 'Summer Matters' email newsletter read by thousands of camp families and 6,000+ industry professionals.

The company is independently and privately held under Owner & Director Jack Schott (assumed role 2024, succeeding Scott Brody who led for 30 years), employs 51–100 staff (predominantly seasonal, with 80%+ returning year-over-year), and is accredited by the American Camp Association. Operations are tightly capacity-constrained by design, with a 75% family return rate serving as the primary KPI of community stability rather than a growth lever.
