Frequently Asked Questions:

How do I get there?

The train station is in Brattleboro, VT, about 6 miles away.

The closest airport is Hartford, CT (1.5 hours away).

We can help with transportation if you share your itinerary with us.

and arrive by 3pm Saturday afternoon and leave at or after 4pm on Thursday; a shuttle will be running to and from camp at those times. Feel free to call before you make your flight plans so we can help you determine the best travel times if you need a ride to the airport.

What is camp's theme?

Rather than provide a theme or general question each year, we choose presenters based on camper's feedback, relevant world topics, and staff recommendations. We have found that each year, a theme organically emerges built from shared reflection, knowledge and personal experience. This year, the focus will be on the Humanity of Teaching as opposed to a specific age or subject matter.

Oops... I forgot something

Don't worry! We have a small camp store and larger stores are a short drive away if you forget -- transportation can be arranged!

How do I register?

Teachers' camp fills up very quickly, we encourage you to register as soon as possible!

What camp costs (2023)

This camp is an act of love, not a business and we share the costs of labor, stewardship, food and materials. This year, the all inclusive fees are:

$800 per camper*

$400 per child

* Locals who commute each day pay half price

*Alumni receive a $50 discount

What's Included?

All meals, lodging and tuition as well as a certificate for +/- 20 hours of in-service training are included in the fee.

When do I pay?

A deposit of $200 and the registration form is required to hold your spot.

All payments are due by June 1st - no payments can be accepted at camp this year!

We have tried our best to keep costs affordable but if this fee presents a real hardship for you, we want to fund small scholarships for those needing help to come. As Tom Hunter always said, "Money should not be the thing that keeps you from coming!"

Please email Billie at [email protected] for more information.

Once you register, you will receive a "what to bring to camp" list and other important details that will make your experience the best it can be!

"We've been waiting for you to come to this place."

GMTC is "camp" in every sense of the word! Not fancy or luxurious but cozy and comfy and so much fun!!

"Where do you sleep?"

Nestled in the Green Mountains of Vermont, the rustic cabins (with electricity) are just a few steps from the restrooms with hot showers and flush toilets!

"Where do you spend time all together?"

There is a large, century old wooden lodge on the hill where we will gather for our large group activities.

"What else have you got?"

Bring a swimsuit and towel too as we have a beautiful pool!

"What can we do indoors?"

We also have an "art instigator" who facilitates work and play in our art barn that is like a large treehouse where creating comes naturally!

"What can we do together?"

Many hiking trails, covered bridges, waterfalls and swimming holes are within walking distance of the camp!
