Summer Camp

Program Overview

The Summer Camp program is the heart and soul of Camp Mi-A-Kon-Da. With over 60 years of operation, it has grown and evolved over the years to become what it is today.

Girls ages 7-16 register for 2 or 4 week sessions during July and August. We also offer a 1 week introductory session for girls ages 6-9 in the first half of July. With only 100 campers each session, new campers quickly find a place in the tight-knit community.

During summer camp, campers have the freedom to choose from a wide variety of activities to participate in each day. Mi-A-Kon-Da offers a broad range of activities including rock climbing, canoeing, and sailing. Campers can participate in activities recreationally, or work towards earning a badge to grow their skills at that activity. Our qualified staff supervise and provide instruction for all activities while acting as role models to teach campers important life skills. Learn more about our activities on our Activity Overview page.

Arts & Crafts

Summer camp would not be complete without a fun and extensive arts and crafts program! Camp Mi-A-Kon-Da offers a wide variety of arts and crafts, including tie die, macramé, beadwork, hemp, mask making, painting and much more!

Creative expression is a wonderful way for a camper to enhance her sense of self. Our staff work hard to nurture a creative environment where campers can create unique crafts and express their personality. Campers can work on larger projects as well, such as paddle making. Guest Artists also lead Special Arts and Crafts workshops, such as Knitting 101, Cartooning, or Henna.

Archery

Archery is a sport everyone can be successful at regardless of age, size or physical ability. It develops hand-eye coordination, dexterity and teaches the importance of focus and concentration.

Mi-A-Kon-Da’s archery program offers campers a chance to learn fundamental skills as well as more advanced techniques, incorporating fun through theme days and archery games. Campers practice under the careful supervision of trained counsellors on our range which is safely tucked away at the far end of the island.
