Camp Wicosuta

Camp Wicosuta is a traditional sleepaway camp for girls in Hebron, New Hampshire. Each summer we run two distinct camp sessions, each hosting approximately 300 campers and 170 staff members. At Camp Wicosuta, our 3 Cs philosophy (confidence, competence, and community) is part of everything we do! We offer activities in the areas of athletics, aquatics (pool and waterfront), creative arts, performing arts, environment education, and more. Our staff members can be role models for children, spend the summer outdoors, enjoy fun activities and build great friendships.
