Camp Nor'wester
Residential coed summer camp
Camp Nor'wester has provided memorable summers to 1000's of kids since 1935. Our program is focused on getting outside, living with simple comforts; doing things that require less technology and more personal effort. Our activities are considered traditional: arts and crafts, drama, archery, and ropes course, with lots of outdoor activities like sailing, kayaking, hiking and overnight camping trips.
Kids don't have to be the smartest, fastest, tallest or coolest to come to Nor'wester. They just have to be willing to leave the cushy life behind and unplug for a while, try something out of the ordinary and have fun.
