2008 Club Camping
September 27, 2008

Check back for 2008 Club Camping Registration Form.

Camp Fire clubs will enjoy renting a cabin at camp to bond as a group, enjoy the great outdoors and earn beads and emblems for learning new skills. Camp Wyandot is convenient (just an hour from Columbus) and provides enough amenities to comfort first-time campers, but has no shortage of natural wonder or opportunities to practice survival skills.

Round up all your club members, friends, classmates, cabin mates from summer camp, and parents and head down to camp for a weekend retreat. There will be plenty of time for hiking, boating, fishing, fire building, singing, and marshmallow roasting. Plan to spend the day or make it a weekend overnight.

You can check the calendar for a designated club camping weekend (and plan some activities with other clubs) or simply rent a cabin and come on down for the weekend!

Please call our office at 614-481-8227.
