Wavus
Wavus Camp for Girls in Maine Wavus Camp for Girls, sister camp to Kieve Camp for boys, is a traditional residential and wilderness trip camp for girls ages 8-16. MB and Wavus Camp have been linked since the camp’s founding in 1922 on Damariscotta Lake in Jefferson, Maine. Two couples, who met at MB, founded the camp: MB history teacher, Delbert Andrews, and his wife, Emma Belle, who worked as the secretary to the school’s Treasurer; and Ray Dorman, MB’s Director of Athletics, and his wife, Peggy
Peacock Dorman, who oversaw the girls’ dormitory. From 1941 to 1958, long-time head of MB’s lower school, Dick Allen, and his wife, Alice, were also on the senior staff at Wavus. Today, the connection continues thanks to an MB alumnus who has made The Alice & Dick Allen Scholarship available to a selected girl who is either a Moses Brown student or the child of a Moses Brown faculty or staff member. For more information about the scholarship, please contact Jane Barrett at jbarrett@mosesbrown.org.
