GMS Project Adventure is an adventure day travel camp; we are outdoors in nature everyday prohibiting dramatic weather that safety would merit the need to be sheltered. 

Curiosity, inquiry, problem solving, risk taking, confidence, realization, compassion, caring, intellect, integrity, positive group interaction are amount the qualities we seek to foster in campers of all ages. 

GMS also concentrates on such goals as the ability to work in small groups toward the completion of tasks, conflict resolution, increased self-awareness and real self-confidence based on real personal accomplishments. 

GMS uses beaches and other natural and historical areas throughout Essex County in order for our campers to share in the unique activities our community has to offer. 

GMS draws on the estuarine environment, local woodlands and wetlands to involve participants in a variety of different physical challenges and educational activities including: adventure games, problem solving, rock climbing, bouldering, orienteering, building hermit huts, tide pooling, marine studies, nature studies, environmental stewardship, hiking, dory rowing, outdoor safety, swimming,  snorkeling and camping.

GMS also seeks to foster an understanding and appreciation of the social and physical environment of Cape Ann, through exposing campers to the wonderful natural world around them, educating them in the history and development of Gloucester and Cape Ann as well as exploring the area’s  natural  and economical resources to promote lifelong environmental stewardship.
