Description: We invite everyone to join us as we celebrate the 50-year anniversary of our chapter with a weekend that’s pure SEM magic, a multi‑sport celebration crafted by your very own SEM leaders. We will be located at Camp Burgess in our own Southeastern Mass region in East Sandwich on the Cape.
This is your chance to play, relax, explore, and connect in whatever way feels right for you: curled up with a book in the lodge, wandering the grounds, or dipping into the lake for a swim. Additionally, there will be plenty of leader-led group activities to choose from such as nature walks, beach volleyball, longer hikes, cycling along quiet roads and paths, or paddles in the lake. And if you want to turn up the adventure, Camp Burgess staff programming includes a climbing tower, high ropes, and a ZIP line that will have you grinning all the way down.
The camp has electricity, heating and showers. Accommodations are in shared bunk rooms. No pets allowed.
You can select from one of two options: Full weekend – Includes two nights’ accommodation, all meals (breakfasts, dinners and bagged lunches), SEM led group activities, plus access to Camp Burgess Programming (Climbing Tower and Low Ropes) Saturday Only (Day-Pass) – Includes access to the camp and Camp Burgess programming, All SEM group led activities, plus bagged lunch. Cancelation Policy: Full refunds less 4% credit card processing fee up to September 15. After September 15, refunds will only be issued if you can find someone else to take your place.
