DATES & TUITION

While many summer camps house a few hundred campers at once, we only accept between 35 and 45 campers (boys ages 7-17) per session. At Birchwood, we keep our enrollment small by design so we can focus on the things we value most: connection, self-discovery, and a sense of shared purpose.

"This was the single most life-changing experience my son has ever had, in so many ways."

Stacey | St. louis, mO

"Birchwood is where my son has learned not only independence, but confidence in new situations, with new people, hard work from not wanting to let his fellow campers down, and a love for animals and nature. Although I missed him every second, I knew he was safe, having fun, and growing in ways I could have never imagined in one of the most beautiful, pristine places in the world!"

Sara | Kansas City, KS

As parents, we loved that he was exploring, experiencing and that he was so happy! We appreciated how friendly, informative and responsive the camp was before and during our son’s camp experience. The camp location is one of the most pristine and incredible places you can imagine. To sum it all up, it is perfect!

"While at camp, boys have an opportunity to truly be themselves. They get to explore and be outside. They make valuable friendships.  My son has grown so much in his independence, confidence and belief in himself because of his experiences at Birchwood. We are already counting down the days till next summer."
