Our Mission

The Mission of Camp Ondessonk is to provide an environment that inspires physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual growth for individuals and groups through the appreciation and stewardship of nature.

Our Vision

The Vision of Camp Ondessonk, a camp founded on the Catholic Faith, is to be the world’s best youth camp. Inspired by positive role models, campers will experience the wonders of God’s creation through adventurous, challenging activities in a unique, rustic environment.

What is Lodge?

altThe Lodge of Ondessonk and Tekakwitha is an honor society for campers and staff alike who have shown their loyalty and dedication to camp in an exemplary way. Lodge is responsible for putting on the Lodge ceremony every Thursday night during summer. New members are inducted weekly and may then come to Fall or Spring Lodge Reunions, weekends where the Lodge works to maintain the organization with elections and meetings, as well as to give back to camp through service projects. Members are divided geographically into tribes, which act independently to do service in their communities and for Ondessonk. Through fundraisers or service, all members of Lodge strive to give back to the Camp Ondessonk community.
