There are more activities available than a camper can participate in during a two-week session at Camp Widjiwagan. All programs emphasize YMCA character development attributes of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility.
The Camp Widjiwagan program is designed to teach new skills and increase self-confidence. Each camper has the opportunity to participate in all of the most popular camp activities, building teamwork, cooperation and lasting friendships. Counselors circle the tribe at the day's end with reflections and award character beads.
