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.
Happy Memorial Day Weekend! Green Nation salutes all those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom and our ability to enjoy summers in the Northwoods for nearly 100 years. ♥️🤍💙🇺🇸💚🤍
The new Shower House is ready to keep Green Nation clean! The only question now is, who will take the first shower in it in CM history?
If you’ve noticed an energetic vibration shift in North America in the last 24 hours, it may be because of the presence of the one and only Mr. Wood, who has made it back across the pond for another summer of wisdom and frivolity. #SummersComing #CM2025 #Woody #WoodysPitch 💚🤍⚽️
Happy Mother’s Day to all of our amazing Moms in the CM Family around the world from the Friendly Confines! 💚🤍

In Loving Memory of Eric Jurgensen
It is with a heavy heart that we share the sad news of the passing of a dear friend of CM and longtime member of the Camp Menominee family, Eric Jurgensen, who passed away last night in Milwaukee due to complications from a stroke. He was 61 years old.
Eric will be fondly remembered by multitudes of campers and counselors for his love of camp and his deep commitment to our community. Coming to camp the summer after he graduated from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 1984 with a degree in journalism, Eric immediately made his mark at Menominee by taking over the Megaphone and transforming it into a daily tradition. Campers would eagerly await every edition placed on their beds each day—an enduring memory for many. With the Megaphone as his vehicle, he always took a group of campers under his wing each summer making them feel extra special.
Eric was a pioneer at Menominee, becoming our first full-time administrator. With warmth, intelligence, and determination, he embraced the challenges of the time—mastering computers and guiding Menominee into the information age with vision and dedication. His love for camp and his impact on our growth in the ‘80s are indelible.
To the Klein family, Eric was more than a staff member, he was family. He was affectionately known as “Uncle Eric” to Glenn and Dawn’s first three sons, Joseph, Jacob, and Judah. He lived with the Kleins at IDAJO just across from camp year ‘round and became an integral part of their lives and hearts.
After his years at camp, Eric went on to enjoy a successful career in Wisconsin radio, broadcasting for over 25 years. His voice, both literally and figuratively, touched countless lives.
Eric’s memory is already a blessing to the CM Family and his absence will be greatly felt by all who knew and loved him. We are grateful for the time we had with him, and we will carry his legacy forward with honor and love.
Happy first birthday to my amazing wife…wait…ok happy first birthday AS my amazing wife. Love you Melanie Rein Feldgreber
