Experience the Spirit of Camp Nan A Bo Sho
Founded in 1964, Camp Nan A Bo Sho (NABS) offers programs designed to develop self-esteem, appreciation of a healthy mind, body and spirit, acceptance of all people, and appreciation of our environment. Our fun filled activities teach the benefits of teamwork and cooperation while practices like weighing food waste, recycling and maintaining a compost pile emphasize the importance of caring for our earth. Sessions start on Sunday afternoons and end on Friday afternoons. Campers are involved with activities and programs from early morning until the campfire at sunset.

Beautiful Location
Camp Nan A Bo Sho is nestled on the shores of Waubee Lake near Lakewood, Wisconsin. Its 40 wooded acres are surrounded by the Nicolet National Forest which provides the setting for many of our camping and canoeing trips in which a child can have an outstanding camping experience in a Christian environment. Other facilities include: Orbison Lodge/Dining Hall, large program building, 12 cabin living units, platform tents, medical lodge, arts and crafts area, camp store (Trading Post), athletic field, volleyball court, archery and rifle ranges, challenge course, climbing tower/zip line, a well equipped waterfront with a large swimming area, canoes, sailboats, windsurfers, kayaks, paddleboats and rowboats.

Cabins
Campers live in cabins with some trip and older campers living in platform tents. Private, hot showers, as well as restrooms are centrally located between the girls' and boys' cabins. Campers of the same sex live with counseling staff who provide direction for cabins to work together, play together, and develop friendships.

Staff
Counseling staff is selected on the basis of their values and proven abilities in working with youth. All summer leaders participate in an extensive training program prior to the camp season.

Health and Safety
Careful supervision is the number one priority at Camp Nan A Bo Sho. A qualified medical staff member is on duty around the clock to treat minor injuries and illnesses in our well-equipped medical lodge. Nicolet Medical Clinic in Lakewood and Antigo Memorial Hospital are available for emergencies. Required medical forms will be mailed to you after registration. Campers must provide their own health and accident insurance.

Camp Store
Camp has a store on its premises where your child may purchase items such as T-shirts, stuffed animals, novelties, snacks, postcards, camp stationary, envelopes and stamps. A camp store account is kept at the store so the camper does not have to carry any money. A price list of store items is included in the family packet mailed to you after registration. Fifteen - twenty dollars is adequate for one week at camp; unspent funds greater than $5.00 will be refunded.

Scholarship Program
No person will be denied the benefits of YMCA programs due to financial limitations.  Scholarships are available.  Please call the camp office for more information.
