There are lots of things to do at Towering Pines, with so many activities to choose from and friendships to be made. So, come on, look around - and see what a fun place TP can be!
Towering Pines is a fun-filled summer camp for boys located near Eagle River, Wisconsin in the heart of the American Legion State Forest. Camp occupies an 450+ acre site with over 7,000 feet of shore line between two spring fed lakes, Nakomis and Clear. Crystal clear water with sandy beaches is ideal for our outstanding aquatics programs. Trails through the forests beckon the hiker and rider. Our facilities have been developed to provide complete recreation and camping opportunities for 100 boys ages 7 to 14 and a leadership training program for boys ages 15 and 16. Established in 1946 by experienced educators, Mr. & Mrs. Marion Jordan, Towering Pines & Woodland are now in their third generation of family ownership and direction. In addition to specialized staff members we maintain one counseling staff member for every four campers. Life At Towering Pines encourages a child to grow and experience life independently in a controlled yet away-from-home environment. And, the atmosphere of cooperation in group living encourages success. We introduce ourselves and well qualified staff members to you with pride and the confidence that comes from a 55+ year history of providing children with one great summer after another of successful camping experiences!
