Lighting the Way
~37th Maine Council of Women~
August 21-24th, 2025

In honoring the feminine, our vision is to create a time for transformation. A space for fun, healing, and rejoicing in our womanhood through Earth-honoring traditions, ceremonies, and teachings. We are a multi-generational circle of women dedicated to walking gently on the earth and providing a safe, supportive, and sacred environment for growth.

“Join us on Trout Pond for a weekend of sacred ceremonies,
fun teachings and gentle friendship…”
For the past 36 years the council girls in Maine (and travelers from lands beyond) have gotten together every August to camp. Over the years there were different camps, and now the Maine Council of Women have found a home at Camp Susan Curtis in Stoneham, Maine.
If you’ve come to Council before you know this rural camp has the most amazing private lake and surrounding mountains, with a lovely sandy beach on Trout Pond. It’s completely quiet here (except for our laughter and excitement which overflows the land, and the lake, and the oh-so blue sky).
If you would like to be added to our mailing list, please contact us.
