Winona Camps was founded in 1908. A boy’s residential camp for ages 7-16, which offers exceptional trip program and waterfront activities. Winona is located on 400 acres with almost a mile of shore frontage on Moose Pond in Bridgton, Maine. The majority of our campers live in small platform tent groups of six which creates a wonderful sense of community. The Winona experience strives to preserve a sense of earned accomplishment and perseverance over instant gratification. We encourage hands-on learning as part of a whole experience held together by our constant aim to nurture responsibility, leadership and self-esteem. Activities instruction is available in water sports, wilderness hikes, canoe trips, riding, sailing, kayaking, rock climbing, field sports and much more! Four units grouped by age offer small group instruction with the benefits of a large camp population. The Junior Maine Guide program, co-founded at Winona, is available to campers who are at least 14 years old. Winona is a diverse camp with often thirty states and fifteen foreign countries represented. A veteran staff, with over 85% returning each season, help create the Winona Experience.
