A Tradition of fun since 1920. Boys aged 7-17. Chikopi is an authentic sports and wilderness camp. 25 land and water sports. Using sports to help boys grow and develop, building confidence and self-esteem. 3:1 Ratio, OCA/ACA Accredited, Bob Duenkel, Director for 37 years.
A boy's summer camp adventure since 1920. Our 92nd summer on our own Ahmic Lake, in the heart of the Almaguin Highlands. The finest wilderness camp experience for boys who gather from around the world. Chikopi nurtures and challenges boys so they discover new parts of themselves: A nine-year-old sails across the lake — and back! A 12-year-old afraid of water, learns to swim a, “dock to rock”, and a 15-year-old who has never stuck with anything in the city is given the constant support he needs to prepare for the 6 day wilderness canoe trip. Their self-esteem grows. Our highly trained veteran staff and 3:1 camper-to-staff ratio allows us to ensure each camper individual nurturing attention. In addition to our traditional activities, ask us about our swim, soccer and softball teams, canoe tripping and environmental initiatives. Find out why our "boys only" camp is the right choice for your son! Campers master the art of group living with expert support from experienced counselors. No technology at camp. A strong sense of tradition and community. Chikopi: a lifetime gift for your son. Camp Chikopi for Boys (1920) and Camp Ak-O-Mak for Girls (1928) have a unique brother-sister relationship grown from nearly 90 years of shared traditions and history and the campers get together throughout the summer for special events and weekly activities. An adventure of a lifetime!
