Why Willoway?

Willoway’s activity program encourages campers to discover what they love to do! Weekly schedules provide lots of opportunities to try out new activities and experience the joy of accomplishment.

With an emphasis on non-competitive “fun” summer, the Willoway Experience gives your child the ingredients for new dimensions of personal growth and creativity with the finest facilities.

Children participate in a range of sports, art and aquatics activities that are taught by a staff of teachers and specialists. With the aid of expert instructors, and based on American Red Cross Swim curriculum, non-swimmers develop skills and confidence, while campers with skills become even better swimmers.

Many campers who have never played baseball or other games learn at Willoway. Our grounds are equipped for baseball, volleyball, archery, gymnastics, track, basketball, field hockey, soccer, sand volleyball, tennis, go-carting, trust & challenge activities, climbing wall and more!

The camp pond with fishing, paddleboating, kayaking, and canoeing provides all levels of aquatic skills. Children who like to catch turtles and frogs will find them near our pond and on our nature trails. Those who like lambs, goats, and rabbits, will visit them in the animal farm. Pony riding is a most popular activity.

Creative imaginations soar as campers enjoy dramatics, dance, rocketry, arts & crafts, ceramics, chemistry, digital photography and fencing.

The entire camp comes together for special events including our July 4th celebration and Annual Carnival or for Olympic Day.

Optional Thursday overnights, weekly cookouts and all camp shows add excitement and build tradition.

Woven into everyday camp life are opportunities to build lifelong friendships, develop problem solving skills, independence and self esteem, all within a premier camp environment, one as complete as a sleepaway camp, a place we call Willoway.
