Camp Description:
O-AT-KA, founded in 1906, is a traditional boys summer camp located on Sebago Lake. O-AT-KA provides a nurturing and supportive environment for boys ages 8-16. The camp offers superb land and water-sports, along with a strong arts program headquartered in an eight-studio arts center. Campers select from activities including: riflery, archery, sailing, fishing, waterskiing, campcraft, stained glass, nature, music, steel drums, pottery, photography, fly-tying, drama, rock climbing, kayaking, and woodworking. Competitive team sports and skill development programs are offered in soccer, tennis, baseball, basketball and lacrosse. This summer O-AT-KA will offer a two week intensive baseball and lacrosse program during first session and a pre-season soccer skills and conditioning program during the second session. Older campers have the opportunity to sign-up for a variety of 3 day mini-wilderness trips including sea-kayaking based out of the camp’s new off-site facility in South Bristol, Maine. Traditional values, an integral part of camp life, are reinforced by a superb staff, through group living and daily camp gatherings...all helping to build a solid foundation for life which stresses values, skills, friendships, and fun.The wide variety of individual pursuits, team activities, and daily camp gatherings provide a well-rounded experience to every camper. Mature staff members offer guidance, instruction, and support to help boys become stronger, more self-reliant, and self-assured. With a 3:1 camper to staff ratio, the vast majority of our staff and campers return year after year. For additional information call 800-818-8455.
