Many of our counselors are former campers who can't wait to share the Lake Owego experience from a first-hand perspective. We also personally recruit counselors from colleges and universities throughout the United States as well as some from Scotland, England and other countries.

Lake Owego Camp is owned by the Black family, who has been operating youth summer camps longer than almost anyone else. In 1931, Hughie and Selma Black founded Pine Forest Camp, which grew over the years to become a nationally recognized co-ed camp. Building on that success, Lake Owego for boys was opened in 1961, and our sister camp for girls, Camp Timber Tops, was opened in 1963.

Today, the third-generation and 4th generation leadership of Mickey and Barbara Black, and their children, Lee and Anna, carry on the family legacy, earning awards such as "Family Business of the Year" and serving as active leaders in the American Camping Association of America.

Directors John and Rachel Waszczak, Kyle Silver, Jeff Freedman and Shelly Silver have over 90 years of combined camp experience, and they work together a fantastic camp experience for each and every Lake Owego camper.

CAMP LEADERSHIP CIT/LIT PROGRAMS: Campers going into 11th grade take part in our Counselor Assistant program, which includes opportunities to assist in teaching activities, assist in younger bunks, go on college tours to NY, MD, PA, MA, and a 2 week trip to Costa Rica.

CAMP FACILITIES: Campers stay in the college dorms. Our days are spent inside the campus facilities and outside around campus. Meals are in the university cafeterias.

CAMP PROGRAM INFO: SuperCamp is the original academic, life and leadership skills camp, with locations across the country: Stanford, CSU Long Beach and Villanova University. We have inspired more than 78,000 students from 85 countries.

Only 26% of high school students are ready for college. Prepare better! 73% of SuperCamp grads see an increase in grades. But our grads also experience shifts that go beyond academics: 93% improve peer relationships and 77% improve family relationships. 81% feel more confident in their daily lives!

SuperCamp is a highly engaging experience where your child acquires strategies for effective learning in all subjects, develops critical new skills in reading, writing, thinking, speaking, memory and note-taking, and builds communication, leadership, relationship and career capabilities.

Give your child the experience of a lifetime this summer at SuperCamp. They'll love Outdoor Adventure Day, which is all about goal setting and overcoming fears, learning to work as a team, building trust and rapport with new people and exercising leadership skills. We offer 7 or 10 day programs. Spots are filling quickly, so call today: 800-228-5327

YEAR-ROUND PROGRAMS: SuperCamp doesn't end after the summer. Our year-long after camp support makes sure your student is able to stay on track throughout the school year. We also invite our grads to come back and step into a leadership role at SuperCamp the following summer by enrolling in Leadership Team or Leadership Forum.
