Are you ready to explore your future career in healthcare?


Each summer, HM AHEC offers Medical Academy of Science & Health (MASH) Camps at locations throughout our region. Planning is underway for our Summer 2026 Camps.

MASH Camp is a one-day event, with the exception of Glens Falls which has expanded to two days, where students are invited to explore health care careers and learn from professionals and professors, as well as participate in hands-on activities and demonstrations. Students will also learn about educational requirements, skills and job duties in addition to learning how to prepare for college.

MASH Camp is open to students entering grades 8-12 in our 10-county region. The camps are offered at no cost with a light breakfast and lunch provided. Students are responsible for their own transportation to and from camp locations.

We have multiple camps planned over the summer and you can choose the camp closest to you! We are so appreciative of our host-site partners who help make each year such a success.

To apply, click here to download the application. Once completed with all details and physical signatures, email to aguyette-blackmer@hmahec.org.

Applicants are accepted on a first come, first serve basis. We’re excited to see you this summer!
