Camp DaKaNi - Summer Resident Camp
Camp Fire’s Camp DaKaNi offers resident camping to youth entering middle school through high school. At resident camp, campers learn important life skills such as, autonomy, leadership, decision-making, and teamwork.
Campers will spend 6 days and 5 nights with assigned “tent-mates” and have a counselor assigned to lead their group and serve as a mentor. Tents are divided up by age and gender. Campers will sleep in tents provided by Camp DaKaNi with their counselor in a tent nearby. Boys and girls will have separate campgrounds.
At resident camp, all meals will be included including lunch on Monday and breakfast on Thursday.
