Camp Kawaga

Forge character, build skills, and make lifelong friends.

Nestled in the beautiful Northwoods of Wisconsin, Camp Kawaga offers boys aged 7-16 an unforgettable summer steeped in tradition and adventure. Established in 1925 on a private peninsula on Lake Kawaguesaga, this historic camp provides a nurturing environment where campers can grow, learn, and forge lifelong friendships. Over nearly a century, Camp Kawaga has maintained its commitment to fostering independence, resilience, and a strong sense of community, allowing boys to explore a wide array of activities while developing character and confidence in a safe and supportive setting. Camp Kawaga's program is designed to engage every camper, catering to diverse interests and skill levels. Boys can participate in classic water sports like swimming, sailing, waterskiing, and fishing, or engage in land-based activities such as archery, tennis, basketball, and arts and crafts. The camp emphasizes skill development and teamwork, with experienced counselors guiding campers through each pursuit. Beyond the daily activities, special events, campfires, and cabin challenges create a vibrant and spirited atmosphere, ensuring each summer is filled with fun, growth, and cherished memories that extend far beyond their time at camp. It's a place where boys disconnect from screens and reconnect with nature and each other.
