Wa-Klo

Camp Wa-Klo is a traditional residential summer camp for girls on a lakefront property in Dublin, New Hampshire, accredited by the American Camp Association. The camp emphasizes girl empowerment, with campers building confidence and independence through cabin life, choosing their own activities and speaking to the camp community during Reflections. Its progressive program groups campers by grade: Juniors and Mids for grades 2-5, Inters for grades 6 and 7, the Area for grades 8-10, and a full-summer Leadership Training Group for girls entering grade 11 who take a leadership class, assist in activity classes, run camp-wide programs and volunteer locally. Sessions of two, three, four and seven weeks are offered, and the first and second sessions are programmed differently so full-summer campers get no repeats. Staff are all female.

Progressive program by grade: Juniors and Mids (grades 2-5), Inters (grades 6-7), Seniors and Pioneers (grades 8-10) and a full-summer Leadership Training Group for girls entering grade 11. Riding is an added cost ($1,750-$6,250 depending on periods and session). Camp van transportation from the New York area and airport transfers from Boston are $175 one way, $275 round trip.
