Health & Safety

	HCA Sayahh Health Lodge

At Camp Widjiwagan the health and safety of each camper is our primary concern.  Counselors are trained in safety, first-aid and CPR.  They place heavy emphasis on accident prevention by supervising all activities closely.  The HCA Sayahh Health Lodge is staffed with registered nurses 24 hours a day and will oversee the prescription and medical needs of the entire camp community.  For the protection of everyone at camp, overnight campers are required to have a physical examination within 12 months prior to attending camp.

Cabin Life

	Camper Cabin

Sharing living quarters and responsibilities with a group of same-aged campers from different cities, states and countries is a tremendous amount of fun.  It also provides an opportunity for personal growth, and development of long-lasting friendships.  Making decisions independent of family and working as a team toward common goals invite lessons which give substance to the character-building aims of Widjiwagan.

Cabins comfortably accommodate 14 campers and 3 counselors.  Cabins are air-conditioned and spacious, with two covered porches and a large private bathroom.  Cabin assignments are made according to grade level and gender.  Each cabin group is a part of a grade and gender specific unit, or "nation," to promote spirit and friendly competition. 

Warrior Nation: Rising 4^th and 5^th Grades

Thunderbird Nation: Rising 6^th, 7^th, 8^th, and 9^th Grades
