NSSRA Summer Rituals:
Camp Duncan & Camp Wigwam
|
|
Each August we send off dozens of campers to Camp Duncan in Ingleside, IL and then to Camp Wigwam in Waterford, ME, for a week of hiking, rock climbing, crafts, dancing and so much more! Campers experience the wild and wonderful adventure of being away from home in the great outdoors, collecting magical memories to last a lifetime!
Check out each camp's respective recap video to the below.
