Welcome to Copper Cannon Outdoor Education Center

Situated on 128 beautiful acres in the White Mountains, near Franconia Notch State Park, Copper Cannon provides more than just a meaningful outdoor experience. The Summer Camp Program also teaches children fundamentals of good citizenship, moral behavior, respect for themselves and others, and strives to instill a sense of self-esteem and pride.

36th Annual Auction

The date for the 36th Annual Copper Cannon Auction has been chosen. Mark your calendars for Saturday March 1st, 2008. The Littleton Elks Lodge will be graciously hosting the event again this year with a wonderful buffet meal being available while participants browse a collection of penny, silent and live auction items. The live auction will commence at 6:00 immediately following wine tasting and dinner.

Thanks to the tremendous effort of many supporters through last year's auction, over $30,000 was raised. In turn, it helped fund scholarships to 80 under-served New Hampshire youth. Copper Cannon has the unique distinction of being one of the few summer camps in the country that provides a free camp experience to low income children.

If you need additional information concerning the auction, have an item you would like to donate or want to learn more about Copper Cannon Camp and its programs, feel free to contact Copper Cannon at 603-823-8107 or auction@coppercannon.org
