SoccerPlus Camper Quote: |
"The
fields were always in great shape a
little beat up around the goal but
that's to be expected, other than
that they were the best grass fields
I've played on. The food always
something to look forward to after a
training session."
"Fields where in great shape."
"It was very clean and a nice
place to stay." |
|
SoccerPlus Staff Quote: |
"Quiet campus,
great fields."
"Some of the dorms are old. Dining
Hall can be crowded at times." |

Vermont, and Keene, New Hampshire. |

Site
History: |
Northfield Mount
Hermon, located in western
Massachusetts, encompasses 1,100
scenic acres on the wooded banks of
the Connecticut River and is near
the borders of Vermont and New
Hampshire. One of the best-known
private secondary schools in the
country, Northfield Mount Hermon
School began as two separate
institutions: the Northfield
Seminary for Young Ladies, founded
in 1879, and the Mount Hermon School
for Boys, which opened in 1881.

About
the Cafeteria: |
Meals include
a deli bar, salad bar and cereal
offering at every lunch and dinner.
Students enjoy "make-your-own"
waffles, eggs and omelettes to
order, and the stir fry and pizza
stations. Nutritional information is
always available in the dining hall
and on-line. |
About
the
Dorms: |
At Northfield there
are 10 dormitories (approximating
250,000 square feet) that are
currently configured to accommodate
about 465 students and 42 faculty
apartments.

About
the
Fields: |
The fields at NHM get
very little use throughout the year
and are usually in perfect shape
upon our arrival. The fields are set
up and lined to maximize our space
and the whole area is surrounded by
trees which makes training sessions
quiet and easy to focus. |
