Located on Stanley House Road on the shore of Lake Joseph in Ontario’s Muskoka Lake Region, campers gather from across Canada and around the world to enjoy an unforgettable experience that has made Camp Ekon a yearly return for children and teenagers alike.
Campers create lifelong friendships, learn respect for the natural environment, and gain an appreciation for others. Through activities and adventures led by our staff in the Jesuit tradition, the scenic waters and rich landscape will lead participants to grow in mind, body, and spirit.
Camp Ekon is Jesuit in philosophy, Roman Catholic in tradition, and public in Service. Campers and staff from all faith traditions are welcome at Ekon. Religious programming includes the fostering of a constructive environment of belonging, sharing, and respect; a simple sung grace at meals; and an optional daily Catholic liturgy. Leadership camps incorporate reflective, spiritual, and service components that are age-appropriate and respectful of differences in faith traditions.
We offer a variety of camps for boys and girls ages 8-16, both gender exclusive and co-ed. We also offer leadership camps designed to create leaders of the future. Campers participate in various activities to build essential teamwork and leadership skills, both within everyday camp life and in their communities.
