Director Transition
Continuing Strength in Leadership
Since its founding more than a century ago, Camp Agawam has been led by five extraordinary directors, all of whom have left an indelible mark on Agawam while maintaining constancy that allows alumni from decades ago to feel right at home. Over the past 105 years, Agawam has helped shape and guide young people to various paths of success, discovery, and growth.
Camp Agawam’s success is due not only to its talented leadership, but also to the passion and support of its community of alumni, families, and friends. This page will be updated regularly throughout the process of identifying Agawam’s next generation of leadership.
