WEEnonah

Our small-group settings and diverse activities like arts, archery, and canoeing encourage independence and curiosity. For memories that last a lifetime, and the start of a journey towards growth and confidence, look no further than WEEnonah.
Wenonah One
Wenonah One is a one-week Camp experience designed for campers ages 8–12. It’s a chance to experience some of Wenonah’s favourite activities and programs, make new friends, and discover what Camp is all about — all in one action-packed week.
With a mix of classic Camp activities, time outdoors, and opportunities to try something new, Wenonah One offers a welcoming introduction to Camp life. It’s a great choice for first-time campers or anyone looking for a shorter Camp experience, all within the supportive, nurturing, and safe community that makes Wenonah special.
Overnight Camp
Set sail for adventure during our 1-month and 2-week programs, designed for campers ages 8–15. Our immersive Summer Camp experience offers the perfect balance of personal choice, group activities, and time to explore all that Wenonah has to offer. From wilderness expeditions and watersports to arts, sports, and outdoor adventures, campers can discover new interests, build confidence, and form lasting friendships along the way.
With more time at Camp comes more opportunities to challenge yourself, try something new, and become part of the Wenonah community. It’s the full Camp experience — and one you’ll remember long after Summer ends.
ROOTS
ROOTS is a unique Wenonah experience for 15-year-olds, designed to deepen connections with nature, build leadership skills, and challenge campers to discover what they’re capable of. Through challenging outdoor activities, meaningful group experiences, and opportunities for personal growth, ROOTS encourages campers to step outside their comfort zones, take on new responsibilities, and grow as leaders.
It’s an opportunity to explore, challenge yourself, and build the confidence and skills to lead — at Camp and beyond.
Leadership Programs
Take your leadership to the next level with Wenonah’s POLARIS and WCIT programs for youth ages 16–17. These immersive leadership experiences challenge campers to develop their skills, take on greater responsibility, and put their leadership into practice through outdoor adventures, wilderness trips, workshops, and real-world challenges.
With opportunities to lead, learn, and grow alongside a supportive community, POLARIS and WCIT help participants build the confidence, judgment, communication, and problem-solving skills they can draw on at Camp and in their everyday lives — at school, at home, and in their communities.
Why Wenonah?
The world trusts Wenonah as a cherished home away from home, where campers can chase their dreams in the company of their caring and committed Camp family. Camp is home to 250 campers and 100+ staff members. Over 80% of our campers return to Wenonah year after year, allowing children and youth to build upon the personal growth they achieved in previous summers.
Safety is the cornerstone of our Summer Camp experience. We are proudly accredited by the Ontario Camps Association and affiliated with the Life Saving Society of Canada and the Red Cross. Our rigorous safety protocols allow our campers to explore and grow, while families can feel secure in the knowledge that their well-being is our foremost priority.
With a Management Team that provides year-round, full-time direction to all aspects of the Wenonah experience and a 90% returning staff rate, Wenonah's dedicated staff form the heartbeat of this community. Our team strives to create a warm, nurturing environment where each camper feels seen, celebrated, and supported.
We are located east of Bracebridge in the Muskoka region of Ontario (two hours north of Toronto). The main Camp area comprises one hundred acres of spectacular forests, including twenty-four acres of pristine, untouched wilderness in the heart of the rugged Muskoka woods.
"Congratulations on another season of Camp that was filled with personal growth, wonder, and accomplishments for hundreds of children, teenagers, young adults, and young at heart adults. Camp holds a special place in your heart that never leaves. I appreciate the commitment of you as Directors to help shape the mission of Camp Wenonah and set the expectations for your staff and the campers. This is not and easy task but you do it with style, fun, and respect."
Camper Parent"Each of your leadership staff from ROOTS, WCIT and POLARIS have a profound effect on campers. Your willingness to listen, to have empathy, to give support is heartfelt by the camper and it doesn't end at Camp. It comes back to our home; we as parents are incredibly grateful. You do a fantastic job of trying to manage the balance of dealing with mental health issues, creating cohesiveness within groups, and making it all a great experience for everyone. Your ability to support teens and let them feel safe at Camp gives them strength to face their challenges."
Camper Parent“I spoke with Camp during the 48 hour call. From the conversation, my son is having a great time and adjusted really well & quickly to the Camp Wenonah environment. I was so thrilled to hear that. My son is a really sweet kid who makes the most of every situation – I hope all the boys are having just an awesome time at Camp. I’m hoping that this will be the first year of many to come. Camp is a quintessential Canadian experience of the outdoors, of friendship and of learning. Love it! Wenonah’s values really resonated with us as a family. It is a bit of a leap of faith to entrust your kids but one we felt really good about.”
