A Summer Camp for Girls

Philosophy

Mission Statement

Camp Mi-A-Kon-Da provides a safe, female focused environment that teaches girls and those who feel affirmed and comfortable in this space to discover their best self.

Philosophy

At Mi-A-Kon-Da we believe in the educational, environmental, social, and recreational values of overnight camp. The experience of overnight camp cannot be replicated in the development of a child. Mi-A-Kon-Da provides a perfect environment for campers to grow and develop feeling valued, confident, and capable. They learn cooperation, independence and an appreciation for natural surroundings. Each summer they acquire new skills, create lasting memories and develops lifelong friendships. And the best part is they have a whole lot of fun in the process!

A PLACE WHERE GIRLS CAN BE THEMSELVES

Camp Mi-A-Kon-Da offers an unforgettable, female focused overnight summer camp experience for campers where they can explore, play, achieve and grow. Situated on Birch Island, near Parry Sound and Muskoka, Ontario, campers select from a variety of traditional camp activities, that challenge them to try new things and become stronger leaders. With a 3-to-1 camper-to-staff ratio, our campers feel safe as they work to learn new skills, build an appreciation for the outdoors, gain independence and of course, have fun! Mi-A-Kon-Da is a special community of friends, sisters, and role models who grow and learn together in the dynamic surroundings of the Ontario wilderness. It is a memorable sleepaway summer adventure for kids where lifelong friendships are formed and once discovered, are never forgotten.

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.
