Enroll NowThe best value in every sense of the word, eight weeks away from home and unplugged rejuvenates the soul. “Catch the Voyageur Spirit,” as physical fitness becomes routine and camping trips dig deeper into the backcountry unleashing self-discovery. In eight weeks at CV strength and confidence come naturally as boys become more responsibile to their group and seek opportunities to lead friends along the path. Camp’s simple, physical lifestyle whittles one down to the essence of their character. Kids get fit, become comfortable on stage and learn valuable life-long skills overcoming new challenges. Returning 8-week campers can spend nearly half their time on the trail as wilderness inspires a love of adventure and a lifelong appreciation for nature.
Confidence soars and friendships grow strong over four weeks at Camp Voyageur. Our creative and energetic staff lead favorite activites like the CV’s Gong Show, the cardboard boat regatta, WELK radio show, and the CV Olympics (watch videos). Boys get in shape playing sports as they prepare for two, progressively longer trips into the BWCAW and Superior National Forest, hiking Isle Royale, sea kayaking the Apostle Islands and traversing Canada’s Quetico Provincial Park. A four week session affords campers time to sail, windsurf, kayak or water ski and learn about archery and Ultimate Frisbee. While some boys become Bushwackers and Big Men, others earn their name on a mess hall plaques by catching the biggest fish or swimming to nearby islands. Campers enjoy day fishing trips, touring the Soudan Iron Mines and visiting Ely’s International Wolf Center and the North American Bear Center.
Voyageur offers two week intro sessions for new campers. These short sessions with limited space are easier to schedule. Two weeks give boys a taste of the fun and adventure of a summer at Voyageur. At base camp boys will enjoying a range of sports before “getting their feet wet” on a three-day Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW) canoe trip. Contact us to answer your questions. Our hope is that you like camp so much, you want to stay for four weeks!
In June Camp Voyageur offers canoe trips for girls ages 12-18. For novice or experienced campers, girls spend a few days in camp training for their trip and then head out for 7 days on the trail. While the Boundary Waters offer many canoe routes, older veterans may venture into the Quetico or hike Isle Royale National Park. Please contact us to ask Deb about the girls trip schedule.
