We’ve
restructured our camp sessions this summer to give you the
ultimate adventure and maximum fun! This summer we are making
our camp more intimate by limiting each camp session to 32
campers. This way we can insure you get the individual
attention you deserve while still enjoying all the great things
camp has to offer like camp fires, swimming, fishing, singing,
nature, sports, music, art, and drama. Plus you’ll get to
choose to participate in a variety of new, exciting activities.
That’s right, you’ll get a chance to participate in the special
new activities of your choice. And once again, we will be going
to Country Jam for a great music festival and to Brainerd for a
high adventure water week.
At Camp Winnebago,
you’ll experience excellent food, caring counselors, clean and
modern facilities, terrific entertainment, great programs and
activities, and seeing old friends and making new ones. Each
week is designed around a “Special Theme” with special food and
special activities that will make your week at camp a
fascinating and unique experience.
The fee to attend
camp is the same great price as the last five years, an all
inclusive price of only $850 per week. And although we
increased our minimum payment slightly, because all of our
campers are important to us, we are once again offering partial
scholarships to families and individuals who may not be able to
afford the entire camp fee. We’ve enclosed a scholarship
application form for your convenience
SO DON’T MISS OUT – REGISTER EARLY – WITH A
LIMIT OF 32 CAMPERS PER WEEK,
CAMP SESSIONS WILL FILL UP FAST!
