Reunion 2025
July 21-23, 2025
Waldenites unite to embrace the joy and warmth of Walden Woods! Slip into your browns and whites and spend a few days with friends, singing, savoring Schnecken, enjoying the refreshing lake, and hitting the tennis courts (we now have pickleball, too!). Of course, we can’t forget the fresh Maine lobster! Whether you’re a Brown or Tan, camper or counselor, we can’t wait to see you as we count down the days to this epic event.

Frequently Asked Questions:
- Does Walden Provide Transportation to and from Reunion? We would love to help, but unfortunately camp is not equipped with vehicles and counselors to make this happen. Walden is unable to provide transportation. You are responsible for all your own transportation; including getting to and from Walden, as well as participating on trips (there will most likely be carpool opportunities). We suggest posting on Walden’s facebook Alumni page if you are planning on attending and would like to carpool.
- Where do I stay during Reunion? There are many hotels, airb&bs, and motels in the area.Click here to find our list of local accommodations here. Summer is very busy in Maine so we suggest securing your lodging early.
- Can I bring my partner and future camper with me? We are so excited you want to share Walden with your love ones and we would love to see them. Monday and Tuesday events are for Alums, Waldenites who attended camp in Bunk 12 during 2021 or earlier. On Wednesday family and friends are invited to join for the morning. If you have a future camper who is in 1st, 2nd or 3rd grade, please check out our Rookie Camp which is being held 7/25-7/28.
