Happy Spring! The ice is nearly gone from Sebago, and with each passing day, the signs of a new season are becoming impossible to miss. Around camp, we’re beginning to shake off winter—opening buildings, clearing paths, and diving into the annual rhythm of spring clean-up and maintenance that helps bring Wohelo back to life. We’re excited for Spruce Up Weekend—a chance to roll up our sleeves together, reconnect with camp, and prepare the grounds
Having Fun on Sebago We are heading into February energized after a very busy start to the year! January began with a wonderful Staff Winter Weekend, followed by our regional gatherings, and visitors to Wohelo. At camp, Sebago Lake is currently a sheet of rare black ice—an event Mark says happens once every 10 years or more.

Happy New Year from Wohelo! We recently wrapped up our Staff Winter Weekend and are still smiling from the time we spent with our 2025 counselors. We shared delicious meals, dipped in the lake, played games, worked on puzzles, and many of us learned Mahjong—which quickly became a favorite! Counselors also experienced Wohelo in winter, enjoying walks around camp, checking out new projects, and simply spending meaningful time together. We’re thrilled that some of these

We hear that April showers bring May flowers, and we hope that holds true. The start of spring has been on the chilly/rainy/snowy side, but there are signs that warmer weather is on the way. The ice is off of the lake, just a few snow piles remain, and flowers are creeping up through the ground. Projects remain in motion around camp, and we’re counting down the days until Opening Day (literally – follow us
A Snowy and Cold Month – More and More Daylight – New Swallows Fire Place! Hello from a cold and snowy Wohelo! We heard on the news that Sebago Lake has frozen over for the first time in six years. It’s been fun to play with the Copernicus Browser to look at satellite images of winter on Sebago Lake. We’ve had a good amount of snow, but that hasn’t stopped the projects or fun around
