      The Ides of March at PMOEC

      Katie Shepard · March 16, 2012 · Leave a Comment

      Pok-o-MacCready logo

      "PMOEC has a topographical map. It is a beautiful scale version of Long Pond and the surrounding mountains and hills that all drain water into our home body of water. There is even a small marking on the topographical map for Camp Poka-moonshine. Truly beggars cannot be choosers … [Read more...] about The Ides of March at PMOEC

      Pok-o-MacCready Outdoor Education Center

      Winter Break Camp and Sharp

      Katie Shepard · February 23, 2012 · Leave a Comment

        "As promised, the best stories come from our break camps. The youngest kids, those that are 5-7 are wonderful and vibrant and full of the most imaginative ideas that you could ever imagine; or couldn't because you have left that version of yourself behind many years ago. … [Read more...] about Winter Break Camp and Sharp

      Katie Shepard · February 16, 2012 · Leave a Comment

      "This week, the emphasis at PMOEC is not on our lecture series. This seems pretty obvious, but we try as hard to concentrate on the task at hand and for the past few weeks, other than work projects, all of our time has been spent gearing up for and enjoying our lectures.
