About
Camp Wyandot Camps (Camp Wyandot & Camp Otonwe) offers activities such as archery, swimming, boating, and hiking. At Camp Wyandot, sleeping cabins remain primitive so the sounds of frogs and crickets are uninterrupted at night.
Camp Wyandot, Inc. was founded as a Camp Fire Council in 1913, became an Ohio nonprofit corporation in 1928 when it purchased Camp Wyandot in the Hocking Hills, and became an independent non-profit organization no longer affiliated with Camp Fire as of April 30, 2013. Camp Wyandot is celebrating its 98th continuous year of operation. Camp Wyandot, Inc., an independent nonprofit camp since 1913, gathers stakeholders each year at an Annual Luncheon to celebrate, learn and support the camp program. Camp Wyandot serves boys and girls with summer day and overnight camps and the Wyandot Explorers program. Campership scholarships are provided for many children who would not have had the opportunity to be in nature otherwise. Volunteer opportunities include office assistance, bulk mailings, Spring and Fall Workdays, consulting for fundraising, programming and marketing, helping with events such as the Annual Luncheon, Halloween in the Hills, Donor Appreciation, Alumni Weekend, and securing donations of time or products from businesses, and volunteer awards are granted yearly at the Annual Meeting, with anyone able to nominate volunteers for an award. One parent reported that a 10-year-old camper “had a BLAST--even with COVID-19 precautions” and “already can't wait to return next year.” Other testimonials describe Camp Wyandot as “a place of refuge, community & friendship for many years,” “best place ever, shaped my childhood,” and “more than a summer camp location” that is “an accepting, inviting, and fun place that brings people together.”
