Fun and adventure await you at Camp Red Cedar! We invite you to get outside and enjoy summer camp as it was intended to be — in the great outdoors!
We pack a full schedule of activities into our camps that include swimming and boating in our 10-acre lake, playing kickball and archery on our sprawling activity field, creating works of art in our craft area, taking nature walks through the woods, singing around campfires and riding horses on trails. But the most exciting thing about attending summer camp at Camp Red Cedar is the incredible friendships (and memories) you will make!
Our facilities and equipment are fully accessible, ensuring that campers of all abilities can fully engage in all Camp Red Cedar offers. Although each camp has distinctive activities, campers of all abilities come together for shared activities such as swimming, boating, and arts and crafts. Additionally, Camp Red Cedar offers specialty camps for children with Down syndrome, autism, and diabetes.
Whichever camp you choose, you can be assured that campers are surrounded by highly trained staff in a safe and supportive environment and that all facilities and equipment are accessible.
