In the land of the cheese heads, where the air is as crisp as a freshly picked McIntosh apple and rivers are as clear as a glass of mom's lemonade, lies the terrific state of Wisconsin. This delightful land is filled with cheese, cows, and Packers fans. But it's also known for its beautiful lakes and rivers. For the kids of Wisconsin, there’s a special magic that happens when they pick up a fishing rod. Oh, and have you met WisconSam? He’s a plump, friendly Badger with a fishing hat that always seems a tad too big for his furry head. WisconSam loves fishing and he’s the self-proclaimed "Fishing Mentor" for all the kids in Wisconsin. He’s as funny as a clown in a tickle fight, always ready with a comical tale about the time he tangled with a fish as big as a football player. Every morning, he gathers all the young fishing enthusiasts and takes them on a remarkable journey. They listen carefully as WisconSam tells hilarious tales of the elusive ‘Cheezy Cheddar Carp’ or the ‘Bratwurst Bass’ that lurk in the waters. The kids cast their lines with giggles, carefully holding their fishing rods, their eyes filled with sparkles of hope and excitement. They wait patiently, hoping to reel in a big one. From the giggling shores of Lake Superior to the chuckling waters of the Mississippi River, the laughter of kids echoes all across Wisconsin. While they might not always catch the biggest fish, they always end up with the biggest smiles.

We’ve seen campers make lifelong friendships that start with the shared experiences of living together at camp. The girls in the cabin become a tightknit family unit. They share stories of the day, discuss victories and defeats, and even braid each other’s hair. Of course, there are also plenty of opportunities for laughter and silliness. This is the special bond that is formed between campers at Chippewa. To further strengthen these relationships, we pair counselors with the same cabin of girls each summer. This allows the counselors to form a strong bond with your daughter over the years. We’ve seen campers form friendships that last a lifetime and it all starts with the shared experiences of living and growing together at camp.
