Summer programs


AKELA CAMP

Akela camp is your Cub Scout’s opportunity to see what resident camp and the Scouts BSA program are all about with the comfort of having an adult nearby. Akela Camp is a four-day, three-night overnight camp, showcasing the best of Ma-Ka-Ja-Wan. Designed with your Scout in mind, Akela Camp programs are tailored just for Cubs. Dens are encouraged to attend together.

SCOUTS BSA

Our two resident camps, East and West Camp, are home to our traditional sleepaway camp experience. Campers build their Scouting skills, sleep under the stars, build lasting friendships, and find adventure at every turn, both in camp and on day trips such as whitewater rafting on the Wolf River.

high adventure

Ma-Ka-Ja-Wan High Adventure Base provides a wide variety of High Adventure opportunities for all skill levels. You can paddle to far reaches of Northwoods in the Boundary Waters, explore along the Ice Age Trail, and sail Lake Superior. Scouts looking to stay in camp can join the Coureur des Bois program, our in-camp high adventure experience featuring nearby excursions.
