Enjoy Upham Woods with Your Family!
Register for now for a 2013 Family Camp Weekend!

Have fun with your family roasting marshmellows, singing songs, and watching crazy staff skits around nightly campfires.
2013 Family Camp Weekends
Mini Winter Camp: February 9-10
Summer Camp: August 2-4
Autumn Camp: October 18-20
Upham Woods’s Family Camp Weekends are places where families play, laugh, and grow together in the spectacular beauty of the natural Wisconsin Dells.
Take your family on a vacation that gets them unplugged from their iPhones, laptops, X-Box, Wii’s and televisions. Enjoy land and water activities, yummy meals each day, campfires, camp crafts, family adventures, our toboggan run in the winter and more! Families have the option of a stay full of adventure, relaxation or a little bit of both.
Start building your family memories and traditions today through a weekend of outdoor adventure, together at Upham Woods.
“I just wanted to THANK you for a phenomenal experience together! It means so much in our incredibly busy world to take this kind of time to simply connect with our families, ourselves, each other, and the great outdoors. Great memories were built this last weekend for sure…”
Challenging and fun activities for the whole family. Families will sign up for activities each day. Many outdoor activities are weather dependent. Examples include…
Archery & Fishing
Canoeing & kayaking on the Wisconsin River
Blackhawk Island & North Shore Hikes
Low Ropes Course
Camp Crafts
Rock Climbing at Devil’s Lake State Park

“The whole experience keeps me giggling…from the night skits at the camp fire….to canoeing and me not being able to steer the canoe in a straight line!”
Live in your choice of a cabin or dormitory room. Cabins may hold up to 1-3 families (of similar age and gender children).
Cabins are completely winterized and nice and warm for our winter and autumn camps. A shower house/bathroom is nearby. Dormitory rooms have four beds each and gender specific bathrooms are available inside the dorm. Meals are served family style along with loads of dining room fun. A fleet of high energy and talented professional staff are ready to entertain, teach, and support your needs, while helping your family grow stronger through shared outdoor experiences.
At any time families may choose to just relax together in your cabin/dorm room, at Sunset rock, walking the trails, or relaxing at our picnic area overlooking the Wisconsin River. Family Camp is open to all ages and includes lodging, meals, staff, and program supplies.
