Chinqueka (girls) and our brother camp Awosting (boys) boast a beautiful lakeside setting in the rolling hills of Connecticut's Litchfield County. Campers stay in cabins on the premises. Two counselors live in each cabin with the campers. All of our cabins are wood sided and are equipped with individual toilets and sinks. Campers have private showering facilities located centrally to all cabins.

Our activity areas include our waterfront with our fleet of boats, canoes, sailboats and ski-boats. Dance, music, ceramics, and theater are some of our popular activities. Mini-Bikes and Go-Karts, Climbing Tower and Zip Line, an indoor sport facility, Gymnastics, Computers, Fencing, Photography, Video, Arts & Crafts, are just a sampling of our electives. Check out our website and see what we did last summer. We have free DVD's available.
