Be your beautiful self! Wear whatever makes you feel FIIIINE. Keep in mind September in Maine can get warm during the day and quite chilly at night. And maybe rainy too! Bring layers and options. There will be opportunities to be cozy and recreate so bring cozy wear and active wear. The ceremony is outdoors, so please take that into consideration when choosing your garb and footwear!
Although we love dogs, dogs are not allowed on CSC grounds.

A VERY cool place doing amazing things for some of Maine's most vulnerable kiddos.. Below is the websites bio for more info "Camp Susan Curtis is a summer camp providing economically disadvantaged Maine children with skills for lifelong achievement, named after the daughter of Maine Gov. Kenneth M. Curtis and Pauline B. Curtis. Susan Curtis was 11 years old when she passed away from cystic fibrosis in 1971. In the outpouring of sympathy and support for the Curtis family a group came together. Their goal, to offer tribute and to make a difference, became a life-changing action. They saw Maine children facing roadblocks to education, development, and success — roadblocks rooted deep in economic hardship. They had another insight too: They saw that a sense of belonging and the power of Maine’s outdoors could mitigate the effects of economic hardship. In 1974, the camp was purchased by the Susan L. Curtis Foundation and re-named Camp Susan Curtis. Since then, it has impacted the lives of more than 18,000 Maine children facing economic hardship."
