Our intimate 4.5 acre campus blends seamlessly into the natural beauty of surrounding Nickerson State Park. Two comfortable cape-style buildings, the Schoolhouse and the Salt Box, overlook spacious grounds and woods. The campus features two ball fields, multiple pavilions and Yurts; six age-appropriate playgrounds and climbing areas; an archery range, a basketball court, and open-air arts spaces. An outdoor Olympic-sized swimming pool with adjacent bathhouses completes a campus that is encircled by the nearly two dozen tents used in the summer months. BDC campers can extend their enjoyment of our campus when they enter the adjoining park by foot or by bus. Campers and staff travel in our own licensed and insured activity bus, or by yellow school bus with professional drivers, which takes them to our boating and sailing program permanently located in the Nickerson State Park. Our campers enjoy park’s pristine ponds, and explore the many hiking and biking paths in Brewster and beyond. Additionally, BDC campers routinely travel off-campus to take advantage of hundreds of uniquely Cape Cod venues such salt water beaches, tidal pools, bays, oceans, ponds, trails, fields, playgrounds, and much much more!
