Welcome to Copper Cannon Outdoor Education Center
Copper Cannon Alumni… are you one?It has been almost 45 years since the first camper was invited to Copper Cannon Camp. Since then, over 14,000 children have experienced Ham Ford's vision. For many, the memories are burning bright and the camp songs ringing in their ears. Our goal is to start to reconnect with those campers and the staff who made a difference in the lives of the children. We want to share the stories of Copper Cannon, the impact it has had on different individuals, and reinstall that camp magic. If you have stories or pictures to share, please contact Copper Cannon at 603-823-8107 or through e-mail at alumni@copperannon.org We have an on-line survey at www.surveymonkey.com to help us see the impact Copper Cannon has had on the lives of its participants. As well, we will be creating a newsletter for alumni sharing stories, photos, volunteer opportunities and upcoming events. Click Here to take survey With the help of our alumni, Copper Cannon Camp will be able to continue providing a free summer camp experience for New Hampshire youth.
The Outdoor Education Center is available throughout the rest of the year, for a small fee, to anyone who wishes to use the facilities to enrich the lives of young people.
