Welcome to Camp Batawagama
Camp Batawagama Cancels for 2020
It is with great sadness that I have to inform you that we are cancelling Camp Batawagama’s 2020 camping season. Due to the uncertainty and the unpredictability of the existing health emergency we do not feel that we can risk the possibility of exposing our campers, our staff and our community to the current virus.
This was an extremely difficult decision to make. This will be the first summer in 75 years that Batawagama will not be able to share its summer program with the citizens of Iron County and the many campers from across the country.
All campers that have registered for Camp Batawagama in 2020 will be receiving their voided preregistration deposit checks in the mail. Voided checks will be mailed to the checking account holder.
All campers interested in requesting registration forms for Camp Batawagama’s 2021 Season can do so starting in January 2021 by emailing: icyc@iron.org. Registration forms for Iron County residents will also be available at the West Iron County School Office and the Forest Park School Office on March 1, 2021.
Thank you for your understanding and we hope to see you in 2021.

Manager Iron County Youth Camp

Camp Batawagama for four generations has been offering an unique experience for campers young and young at heart. Camp Batawagama is nestled in the woods on the shores of Indian Lake, located in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It is a welcoming escape from the busy electronic age we find ourselves living in today. Camp Batawagama was established in 1945 by two Iron County educators who were committed to creating an outdoor education experience for young people; a place they could come to learn camping skills and how to work together all while sharing an appreciation for the wilderness. Camp Batawagama continues today to provide a safe and wholesome environment surrounded by nature with a sound and moral philosophy of fairness and respect for one another. This summer camping for many is the adventure of a life-time.
