Keewaydin Dunmore Today

Our campus now spreads along an entire bay on the north end of Lake Dunmore, a clean, stream-fed lake, which is ideal for all of our waterfront activities. In addition, we have over 500 acres of lovely hardwood forest, perfect for hikes, camp-outs and adventures in learning about the natural world.

To give each boy the best possible summer experience, the 300 campers who come to Keewaydin each summer are divided into four age groups, or "wigwams."

Annwi - 8 to 10 year olds
Waramaug - 10 to 12 year olds
Wiantinaug - 12 to 14 year olds
Moosalamoo - 14 to 16 year olds

Each wigwam is, in many ways, its own small camp—separately located—with an experienced director and staff, waterfront area, campfire circle, play area, boats and a program geared for that particular age group.

While Keewaydin provides boys with new experiences that allow them to develop self-confidence, maturity and character, we never forget that a constant of camping days is to have fun. In addition to the many great activities and trips that we offer, we structure plenty of supervised free-time into each day so that kids can relax and pursue individual interests: playing Frisbee on the ball field, swimming in Lake Dunmore, catching frogs in the lagoon, fishing off the dock, or simply reading a book!

Our campers come from over two dozen states and various foreign countries. They represent different religions, races, cultural backgrounds, and socio-economic backgrounds. Each boy is valued for who he is.
