Loading... Our mission is to help unlock the potential of our campers so they can be the best version of themselves. We don’t think it is enough to simply teach our boys how to swing a bat, get up on water-skis or shoot a bullseye. Campers today are capable of so much more and we want to help bring out the best in each of them. Behind our dynamic program is a set of core values that guides us. We promote personal development and teamwork so that the boy your son wants to be, will grow at Camp Menominee.
The Suds Center. The Spa. The Watering Hole. Wass Wash House. Whatever it ends up being called, the New Shower House and Laundry Facility continues to move forward with indoor wall studs and outside roof shingles.
Been wondering why so much Northern Lights activity lately?
The Aurora Borealis have been more visible in the U.S. lately due to increased solar activity. Specifically, the Sun is currently approaching the peak of its 11-year solar cycle, known as “solar maximum.” During this time, the Sun produces more solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs), which release large amounts of charged particles into space. When these particles interact with Earth’s magnetic field, they cause the auroras to intensify and be visible further south than usual.
The recent uptick in geomagnetic storms, caused by these solar events, has made the Northern Lights visible in places that don’t usually experience them, such as parts of the northern U.S., including states like Minnesota, Wisconsin, and even as far south as Virginia. This increased visibility could continue as the solar cycle progresses toward its peak around 2025. (From ChatGPT)
All these pics were taken last night by neighbors of ours here in the always beautiful Northwoods. Enjoy!!!

#tbt “Destined to Grow Up Menominee”
Cousins Carter Klein’s and Josh Nimrodi’s Northwoods roots run as deep as any. Their Great Great Grandparents Joe and Ida Klein vacationed here in the 1920s. Their great grandfather Alan Klein came north for camp in the 1930’s; their grandfather Mitchell Klein was at Camp Interlaken in the 1960s; their great cousin Glenn Klein started at CM in ‘69 and became co-owner/director with Dawn Klein in ‘83, Josh’s Mom Rachel Klein went to Camp Harand and Carter’s Dad Zach Klein came to Menominee during the mid ‘80s before returning to the Friendly Confines to present Carter and Josh their Five Year Jackets in 2022. Quite the route to the Shores of Sand Lake!
Please message us with your own path to the Northwoods and Menominee. Everyone in our camp community will enjoy reading your story! 💚🤍 #CMFamily #BleedingGreen #FamilyTradition #CampLegacies #ThrowbackThursday #BeautifulNorthwoods
