About
A wilderness setting since 1935, Camp Chippewa provides boys ages 8-17 the opportunity to learn, grow, and achieve mastery in skills and activities that are life-long endeavors. Boys advance in activities (archery, sailing, riflery, tennis, soccer, canoeing, kayaking, climbing, orienteering, waterskiing and swimming) at their own pace and level of interest. Counselors and staff are mentors, big brothers, coaches and teachers inspiring boys to feel pride in who they are and what they do. Learning, achieving and giving back to community are goals for all. Chippewa's unique enrollment of 75 boys is meant to allow staff to get to know each camper on a personal level. In 2018, boys from 2 foreign countries and 23 states developed friendships that will last a lifetime. What began as a family-run business still retains a feeling of kinship which fosters positive role models for boys on the road to adulthood. Being in a technology-free wilderness surrounding, discovering and tapping into one's potential with an intentional program and guiding hand from a well-trained and talented staff helps boys develop the skills and character to manage adversity in their lives.Our goal is to provide age and skill appropriate risks under the supervision of qualified staff. Our intentional program allows for self-confidence to be realized in each camper.
