As campers grow, so do the opportunities for independence and adventure at Camp Lakota. Our older campers (ages 12 to 16) enjoy:

  • More freedom and extended curfew times
  • Day trips like Hershey Park 
  • Weeklong West Coast adventure for our Counselor-in-Training (CIT) program

These unique experiences ensure that every camper is guaranteed an unforgettable summer.

Leadership & Responsibility

Starting at age 14, campers can step into leadership roles through our Chiefs program. They get the chance to:

  • Be chosen as captains for camp-wide traditions
  • Lead their peers in exciting, long-standing events
  • Assist in camp activities, preparing for future counselor roles

Leadership and responsibility are core aspects of the Lakota experience for older campers.

Trips

Trips & Experiences

Our older campers embark on special trips that foster personal growth and unforgettable memories:

  • Hershey Park overnight trips for younger campers
  • 3-night trips for Chiefs, rotating destinations each summer
  • West Coast adventure for CITs during the second half of the summer

These trips offer new destinations, team challenges, and tons of fun each year!
