Night Eagle Wilderness Adventures
Residential boys' summer camp
Night Eagle Wilderness Adventures is a unique primitive summer camp for boys. At Night Eagle, we live in tipis and do things that boys did hundreds of years ago - learn survival skills (fire making with flint & steel or bow drills, plant identification, tracking), create all sorts of craft items (birchbark baskets, moccasins), go on hikes, canoe, swim, and play lots of games (Buffalo Robe, Stalk the Chief and Slack 'Em to name a few)!
Through these activities and the slower pace of life in camp, boys naturally develop a deeper respect for the land and an authentic sense of personal accomplishment as they learn to live competently in the woods.
Night Eagle is a different kind of camp based on mutual responsibility and cooperation. Through community living and group decision making, boys learn to live and play together in a spirit of cooperation rather than competition. ACA accredited camp.
