Summer Camps
Summer + Nakamun =

If you are familiar with Camp Nakamun’s summer program, then you will notice a few changes in our 2021 program.

Gone are our usual camp names, and they are replaced with grades. This is because we plan on hosting smaller camps each week involving multiple age groups.  These age groups will be separate, but also on the site at the same time.

We have labeled each camp by grade.  You will find different options for grades 1-12 happening throughout the summer.

Family Camp

For summer 2021, Family Camp will be called Family Camp Experience.  Registration will not be available online, but through the office.  Call 780-967-5585 to book.

For FCE, you can register for as short as 1 night, or stay the whole week.

Family Bookings outside of FCE

We also have Bluebird Cottage and RV Site rentals available for most weekends during the summer.  Call or email the camp to inquire.
