CAMP CHIKOPI
For Boys ages 7-17
100th Anniversary
Camp Chikopi is a unique mix of a traditional and competitive sports camp. Founded in 1920 by US Olympic Swimming Coach, Matt Mann II, we are renowned for being the first swim camp and the oldest competitive sports camp in the world.
Voted as “one of the best boys sports camps in Ontario,” Chikopi is located on 400 acres of the Almaguin Highlands in Ontario, Canada. With over 2,000 feet of waterfront on pristine Ahmic Lake, we have three beaches and a 50-meter swimming pool built into the lake. We offer over 30 land and water sports; specialize in swimming, soccer and triathlon; and include unique activities such as open water swimming, mountain bike wilderness trails war canoe and canoe tripping.

Our swimming program covers every level; from our respected water safety and learn-to-swim program to our admired highly competitive swim team. No matter what level at which your son swims, he will improve with our personalized program tailor-made to fit his ability and needs.

Campers range from boys who just want to have fun playing sports and being outdoors to those who are gifted athletes. We have programs to fit everyone’s needs and fulfill their summer goals.
Chikopi is very international, we are extremely proud of our diversity and inclusiveness. We enjoy the many nationalities, languages and customs at Chikopi. It is an excellent opportunity for boys to be technology-free and immersed in a variety of cultures.
Our wilderness location and rustic setting add to the extraordinary experience a summer at Chikopi provides.
