Porkies PA Trip

Every year, the 15 year old's of Camp Agawak take a trip to prep them for their CIT year. This past week, Kenzi and I led the group of 40 on a 3-day camping trip in the Porcupine Mountains.The area in located in the small town of Ontonagon, MI, next to Superior Lake.

 

We left camp early Tuesday morning with the vans filled to the brim. After a two-hour drive we finally arrived to good weather and a spacious campsite. After the girls set up tents and ate some lunch, they took a couple short hikes to explore the area and then headed to the beach. After dinner and desert, the girls went back to the beach to watch the sunset (which was a cotton candy painting and AWESOME) and the headed off to bed early.

Day two started out with french toast and Nutella sandwiches after a good night's sleep. Around 11am we headed out for a hike, but unfortunately wasn't able to finish without getting rained on. The girls were troopers and splashed through the mud and wind before we made it back to camp. The rest of the day was filled with rainy beach trips, Lake of the Clouds vistas, and chocolate brownie soup treats. Despite the positive attitudes, storm clouds continued to roll on for the evening and we decided to cut the trip a half a day short.




Kenzi and I are so proud of these brave PA's! This trip was the first camping experience for a lot of these girls and they still continued to find positive light and solution-oriented attitudes throughout! Go cabin Y and 15!!


Crystal Lake Week One

Later last week, we had the opportunity of taking Cabin 1 to Crystal Lake, the clearest lake in Wisconsin. The sun shined just long enough for us to play, swim, and grill out hamburgers by the water.


Raven Trail Week One

Last Thursday, a group of 6 junior campers joined up for the first hike of the summer on the Raven Trail! The state trail is located about 15 minutes north-east of camp and wraps around three lakes. Despite the mosquitoes, the girls continued to laugh and enjoy the nature escape for a couple of hours.

2017 Summer!

We at Camp Agawak are so excited going into the 2017 summer! We are so happy to welcome our new Tripper Jenna to our team. As well as the news the Casey will be coming back this year for our PA trip. We are well under way planning adventures for our campers and have made a couple changes to our regular trips. We have decided to change the PA trip from Copper Falls to the Porcupine Mountains in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. We felt that our campers were up for a bit more of a challenge this year! We will be camping, hiking and canoeing for three days. The Porcupine Mountains is a beautiful location along Lake Superior. If you have any questions email: agawaktrips@gmail.com. Our CIT trip to the Boundary waters is set and planned! We have an amazing group of campers going this year that will have the adventure of a lifetime. Cant wait to see everyone!
Tripper Kenzi :)
