For over 100 years, Camp Chi has transformed children’s summers. We unplug campers from their daily lives and connect them to life-changing moments.
And, long after the last s’more has been made, the best of Camp Chi stays with you. Friendships last forever, summer memories become lifelong stories and values learned become part of who you are.
Spend anywhere from 4 days to 8 weeks at camp or head out on an adventure to the Pacific Northwest.
As kids, tweens and teens mature and change, so do Chi’s programs with options for 3rd-11th grades.
Located just 3 hours from Chicago near the Wisconsin Dells.
The Outpost Village is an outdoor adventure specialty camp at Camp Chi. Whether forging trails, foraging for plants, or forming connections to the outdoors, the natural world is at the forefront of The Outpost Village.

Do you have exciting life updates that you’d like to share with the Chi family? If so, we’d love to feature your milestone event in one of our upcoming editions of The Chi Flame.
Every year Camp Chi presents this award to one staff member who creates innovative camp programming, represents our camp values of Chesed (Kindness), Kavod (Respect) and Kehilla (Community), and who goes above and beyond their responsibilities while demonstrating commitment to leadership.
We believe everyone benefits when everyone can play. Camp Chi provides one-on-one support to ensure that campers with intellectual, social and physical disabilities can participate fully.
Our staff meets with families to understand the camper’s needs and make sure that they are met. This can include anything from how much support they need, if any modifications are required, and which session is best for the child. To learn more about our inclusion program, email Ely London or call her at 847.763.3551.
