Bowdoin Bound's Celebrates 11 Years this Summer!

On July 21st, more than 40 Bowdoin students, chaperones and educators will board a bus and head up to Brunswick, Maine for a wonderful week of camp and educational activities. The younger group (6th through 9th grade) will enjoy 5 fun-filled days at the Bowdoin Day Camp while the high school students will make college visits to schools throughout New England. The older students will also work on their applications, engage in mock interviews, as well as attend a college essay prep class.  Both of the groups will spend several hours in the classroom discussing books and getting a feel for academic life at college. As in the past, the week at Bowdoin will be a great mixture of fun and education.  WBAL radio in Baltimore profiled Bowdoin Bound before we departed for Maine in 2011:  http://www.wbal.com/absolutenm/templates/story.aspx?articleid=76628&zone...
