Spend a Week at Sports Camp

This summer, Camp Winadu will offer a chance for "rookies" who want to see first-hand what a summer at Winadu is all about: DISCOVERY WEEK which takes place while camp is in session. This is open to boys finishing 1st through 4th grades, who are interested in attending sleep-away camp for the following summer. What a perfect way to prepare boys for their first sleep-away camp experience! Campers enjoy making new friends and participating in all the sports and fun activities that Camp Winadu offers. Rookies stay in camp cabins and are supervised by experienced Winadu staff members. We hope you'll come and join our team for an exciting, fun-filled adventure.
