North Country Camps - Lincoln & Whippoorwill

The North Country Camps – Camp Lincoln for Boys and Camp Whippoorwill for Girls – are adventurous and fun full-season resident camps located in the Adirondack region of NY State. We offer a program that emphasizes individual choice, and we offer a wide range of activities in camp including horseback riding, sailing, canoeing, swimming, windsurfing, kayaking, bicycling, soccer, baseball, softball, ultimate frisbee, volleyball, tennis, archery, art, drama, dance, and woodshop. We also offer an extensive Wilderness Trip program. The trips – day trips, overnights, and 3, 4, 5 day trips – include hiking, backpacking, canoeing, bicycling, riding, and sailing. Eighty percent of campers attend for the full season, and twenty percent attend for five weeks, often with the option to stay longer. We also have a generous campership program for those children who might not otherwise be able to join us. Campers live in cabin groups of five or six campers with one counselor. Overall camper:counselor ratio is 3:1. Campers come from throughout the United States and the world.
