Night Eagle Wilderness Adventures
Night Eagle Wilderness Adventures is a unique primitive summer camp for boys. At Night Eagle, we live in tipis and do things that boys did hundreds of years ago - learn to throw tomahawks and atlatls, shoot bows, skin and tan animal hides, make bison jerky, learn survival skills (fire making with flint and steel or bow drills, plant identification, tracking, camouflage), create all sorts of craft items (birchbark baskets, moccasins, rattles), go on hikes, canoe, swim, and play lots of games (Buffalo Robe, Stalk the Chief, Wild Men in the Alders, and Slack 'Em to name a few)!
Through these activities and the slower pace of life in camp, boys naturally develop a deeper respect for the land and an authentic sense of personal accomplishment as they learn to live competently in the woods.
Night Eagle is a different kind of camp based on mutual responsibility and cooperation. Through community living and group decision making, boys can learn to live and play together in a spirit of cooperation rather than competition. Night Eagle is not for everyone, but for a boy looking for a place where he can try his strength, his skills, and his imagination, Night Eagle is a dream come true.
