The Winaukee Way
Camp Winaukee’s mission is to cultivate growth and connection through the power of sports and community. Rooted in tradition and guided by a passion for fun, Winaukee uses positive role models, competition and brotherhood to provide young men with the skills to thrive both on and off the field.
Winaukee provides excellent sports instruction anchored in a traditional sleep-away camp environment nestled on the shores of picturesque Lake Winnipesaukee. Over 100 years of tradition is weaved into campers’ daily lives as side-by-side they learn new skills, build confidence, develop meaningful relationships and become better teammates.
Boys are immersed in developmentally appropriate settings that adjust to their needs as they grow with us. Our distinct Mainland and Island campuses share our Winaukee values while meeting your son where he is socially and athletically.

Fun
At Camp Winaukee, fun is not just an activity—it’s a vital part of the camp experience. We believe that when boys are having fun, they are more engaged, more open to learning, and more likely to build lasting friendships. Fun at Winaukee comes in many forms: whether it’s the thrill of a competitive game, the excitement of a cabin challenge, or the laughter shared during evening campfires, this fun-loving spirit is woven into everything we do.
Boys 7-12
At the center of it all is a leadership team deeply invested in the community they’re building. Ashleigh, Matt, Tom and Chandler share a commitment to creating an all-boys environment where campers feel supported enough to be themselves, challenged enough to grow and connected enough to know they belong.
