Camp Wyandot

Overview

Young people are interdependent with the natural world, yet know relatively little about it through direct experience. Through Camp Wyandot's Overnight & Day camps, we encourage development of natural senses and provide an intimate connection with nature to enable youth to learn leadership, cooperation with others, and community responsibility while building self-awareness and forming friendships.

Camp Wyandot's overall goal is to provide a quality experience that builds competencies and resulting confidence, creating positive life-long memories in a safe and supportive environment.

In an inclusive, engaging, and challenging environment, youth will:

* Increase their social and cultural competencies and feel a sense of belonging

* Develop leadership, teamwork, and cooperation skills

* Increase self-confidence, independence and empowerment

* Plan, make choices, reflect and learn from their decisions

* Build a life-long appreciation and respect for the outdoor environment

* Develop a sense of respect, responsibility and contribution to their community

* Be involved in rich group experiences that are inherently interesting and fun

* Be recognized for their accomplishments
