Tent Life
What’s it like to live in a tent? Why would I want to? Well here are some of the ABC’s to tent life at Camp Wiyaka:
Acquire lifelong skills
Each camper is encouraged to help make cabin decisions, be responsible for their own belongings, and will learn to work together in a shared living space.
Build and strengthen friendships
Tent mates will spend time together at All Camp activities, meals, tent time activities, and flagpole ceremonies.
Create a tent theme
Each tent will establish its own identity and campers will have opportunities to show their tent pride throughout the week.
