Stewardship in Action

Caring for the Place We Call Home
At Camp Huckins, we believe that spending time in nature inspires a lifelong appreciation for the environment. Surrounded by fresh air, towering pines, and the waters of Ossipee Lake, campers learn the importance of caring for the world around them.

Through everyday practices such as recycling, composting, and conservation, campers develop habits that help them become thoughtful environmental stewards and confident leaders. Our commitment to sustainability extends beyond education — it is reflected throughout our campus and operations.

Renewable Energy Initiatives

Since 2012, Camp Huckins has expanded its commitment to sustainability through renewable energy initiatives that reduce our environmental impact while providing meaningful learning opportunities for campers.

Working with New Hampshire-based ReVision Energy, Camp Huckins installed a 7.92-kilowatt solar array on the bathhouse and a 42.6-kilowatt array on the dining hall. Together, our solar systems generate roughly 49,251 kilowatt-hours of electricity each year — enough to offset the equivalent of driving more than 89,830 miles in a gas-powered vehicle.

Our solar arrays have become a highlight of camp and a valuable learning tool. Each morning, campers receive an update on how much solar energy was generated the day before, giving them a firsthand look at renewable energy in action and the positive impact sustainable choices can have on our environment.

Curious How We Financed Solar?
Our projects were financed through a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), which meant the camp paid no upfront costs to install the solar panels. Instead, an investor — in this case, ReVision Energy — covered the installation costs while the camp pays for the power generated from the solar panels each month, instead of paying for power from the grid.

Over time, the camp has the option to purchase the solar arrays at a significantly reduced cost and retain ownership of all power generated by the system.
