Camp Winnebago

Founded in 1919, Winnebago is located on 400 acres with two miles of shorefront on pristine Echo Lake. 150 campers come each summer to enjoy the best summer of their lives. We enjoy a 90% return rate, which is proof of how much fun camp is and how much campers get from the Winnebago experience.How to measure value at camp? Ask the child, and they answer "fun". Ask the adult and they answer "values" and "healthy relationships". We are committed to these terms and how easily they work together. Children want and like a certain program structure. Whether through instructional and competitive sports program, the rustic canoe and mountain trips, individual activities aimed at improving lifelong skills, or many special activities, we love children and insure fun, values and healthy relationships. We stay small because we stress community and everyone knows each other.While many activities have changed over time, our guiding principles remain. Our goals are respecting ourselves and others, mastering new skills and perfecting old ones, acting kindly, cooperating, and cultivating strength of character. Boys come to Winnebago feeling our program was designed specifically for them. They leave with skills and memories that last a lifetime.
