Camp O-AT-KA

Founded in 1906, is a traditional camp for boys located on the sandy shores of Sebago Lake in Southern Maine. With safety being a main priority, boys come to O-AT-KA to explore new interests and gain skills in their crafts. As O-AT-KA evolves throughout history, the mission of building boys into self-assured men of character and virtue remains steadfast. Boys have a safe environment to gain independence and resilience while having fun and making lifelong friends from all over the world. Campers and staff are immersed into a supportive, unplugged environment with robust art, land and water sports and wilderness trip programs. Sessions run from two to seven weeks.

ABOUT O-AT-KA

A long and rich history

Thousands of boys have enjoyed Camp O-AT-KA and we carry on the spirit and traditions of over a century of campers.

Our camp was founded in 1906 by Rev. Ernest Joseph Dennen, an Episcopal minister from Lynn, Massachusetts.

The founding principles and mission of O-AT-KA to “build boys instead of mend men” still remains true today. Lifelong friendships are established and camp is a perfect place for boys to grow into self-assured young men.
