2020 CAMP INFORMATION WILL BE POSTED IN LATE JANUARY

Ages: 10 – 14
Campers will find adventure out on the water learning to kayak and stand up paddleboard in Lake Michigan and the Skokie Lagoons! Staff from The Northwest Passage will combine structured lessons and games with water and vessel safety to create an educational and exciting environment. Instructors will share their knowledge of wind, wave, and weather conditions to further camper’s safety and confidence on the water.

Each day will start with games to get campers warmed up. Next, participants will learn essential gear and safety rules. Finally, everyone will head into the water with their kayaks or stand up paddleboards to apply the day’s lesson. Camp meets at the Skokie Lagoons on Thursday. Other camp days take place at Lloyd Beach. Transportation to and from Skokie Lagoons is not provided.

Camp requirements: Campers must be able to swim 50 feet. Each camper will be required to wear a personal flotation device at all times while in the water.
