A place to be yourself.
A DAY AT OCONTO
We have a wide variety of athletic and creative activities. Try something new, or move through different achievement levels in something you love - either way, you will be proud of your accomplishments. Campers are given the opportunity to excel in the activities they choose, and the older they get, the more they can determine their own programming. Those more inclined to one activity are encouraged to grow in others. In the sports areas, campers can accomplish award levels based on recognized sports' affiliations. Everyone in camp takes swimming lessons (one period per day). "Doing nothing" during an activity period is not an option - we want you to get the most out of your Oconto experience. There is quiet time, but not when you are at activities! So explore ... there is so much to do! For more information about specific activities, please see our Activities section.
