Swimming

A Camper Enjoying a Little Fun in the Sun in Camp Kupugani Swimming Pool

Swimming is always a fun activity on a warm summer day. Our beautiful 30 by 60 foot fully-staffed swimming pool, located in the heart of camp, is the venue for supervised swimming with certified lifeguards, fun pool games, and diving from our one-meter board.

River Walks, River Floats And Dam Jumping

Group of Girls Floating Down the River on a Warm Summer Day

A river walk or river float is the perfect activity for cooling off on a warm summer day. During a river walk, campers dressed in life jackets, shorts, t-shirts, and shoes walk the length of the river observing and interacting with the beings that consider the river their home. Campers celebrate the end of a river walk by floating down the river, taking a trip under our very own waterfall, or doing crazy jumps off the dam into our 18-foot deep lake.

Lake Play

Campers Enjoying Lake Play on the Raft

Campers have the opportunity to go dam jumping, swim in the lake or chill on the lake raft during lake play. Whether you're looking to just soak up some Vitamin D or have fun splashing and playing in the water, there's surely an option that pleases everyone at lake play.

GaGa

Campers Playing a New Exhilarating Version of Dodgeball

GaGa is a fantastically exciting version of dodgeball that requires players to hit the ball with their hand or fist (rather than catching and throwing) below the waist of other players. Our GaGa "pit" contains game play, as well as allowing for wall shots, which keep players active and alert. It's addictive though, so beware...you can't play just one game!

Crate Stacking

Campers using Balance and Coordination to Crate Stack

Crate stacking is an extremely fun activity, which tests campers' balance and coordination, while also requiring teamwork. The object of the activity is to construct a tower of crates while balancing and climbing. Campers enjoy the challenge and self-esteem building experience that comes with trying to climb as high as possible. Our experienced instructors talk you through every step with extreme safety in mind.

Slacklining

Camper Having Fun Slacklining

Test your balance skills by participating in slack lining! Whether campers have tried it before or are completely new to the activity, it's a popular event for all. If you're scared to fall, don't worry. You can have spotters on either side of you for support as you navigate the line only two feet off the ground. Or, if you're more daring, try walking the line all by yourself!

Frisbee Golf

Group of Campers Playing Frisbee Golf

We have a fun nine-hole Frisbee golf course. Frisbee Golf (or Disc Golf) is a fast growing outdoor activity everyone can enjoy. Similar to golf, the object of Disc Golf is to complete each hole in as few throws as possible. Instead of using golf clubs and a golf ball, disc golfers use a flying golf disc to traverse the hole. Easy to understand and play, our Disc Golf activity also allows you to enjoy the beauty of camp, taking you on holes from the valley, to the prairies, to the stunning Walnut Grove. Fun!

Hiking

Camp White Eagle covers almost 120 acres of beautiful forests and land, containing numerous trails and deer paths that make for a great variety of hikes. Choices range from a leisurely hike through the fields and meadows of camp, to a challenging hike.

Challenge Hikes

During a challenge hike, campers learn the importance of teamwork and personal motivation, as instructors lead them on a demanding hike through bushes, down embankments, through rivers, and through mud-covered islands. At the instructor's discretion, some participants may have the test of being blindfolded or physically challenged while other team members safely and carefully guide them through the hike.

Night Hike

Have you ever truly had to use your night vision before? Well, at camp you can. On a night hike, camp staff leads you on a beautiful, leisurely hike with only the moon and your night vision leading you through the path. At the end of the path, each camper can lie down on the grassy flats and gaze at the stars blanketing the night sky, listen to the crickets and frogs serenade you, and witness a surrounding firefly display.

Mud Volleyball

Our one-of-a-kind mud volleyball court could serve as an area for a serious game of competitive volleyball, but most of the time, it provides the venue for sticky, muddy, messy fun! Choose this activity and get ready to get dirty!

Swimming
