oeing and camping skills before heading out on the trail. Many campers stay six or eight weeks by combining the four-week and two-week sessions. Four weeks at camp:
Over four weeks kids bite into the full Voyageur experience. Campers perform in the Gong Show, Clue, Casino, the cardboard boat regatta, the WELK radio show, and CV’s Olympic games. Take day trips to fish, explore iron mines that built America and visit the International Wolf Center and the North American Bear Center. Recreational sports work boys into shape as they prepare for two, progressively longer canoe or hiking trips. Fish for walleye, small and largemouth bass, northern pike, rainbow, brown, and lake trout on adventures into the BWCAW and Quetico. Eight weeks at Voyageur:
The best value in every sense of the word, eight weeks away from home rejuvenates the soul. Physical fitness becomes fun, wilderness trips unleash self-discovery. Ma Nature awakens a primal sense from within. As confidence grows, boys value responsibility to the group and seek opportunities to lead. This simple, physical life whittles one down to the essence of their character. Kids get fit, learn valuable life-long skills and confidence soars as they overcome new challenges. Experienced campers can spend nearly half their time on the trail. Over 70 years of experience. In 1951 Charlie and Mim Erdmann founded Camp Voyageur on a secluded peninsula at the edge of the Boundary Waters in Ely, Minnesota. Our camp mission remains the same: To foster personal growth through group interaction in a wilderness setting. For over 30 years siblings Deb and John Erdmann continue their family’s tradition of summers filled with fun and adventure for boys of all ages. Camp Voyageur meets the professional standards established by the American Camp Association.
