Lodge

Kamaji’s Lodge is quite an impressive building.  In fact, we have witnessed visitors’ jaws literally drop as they exclaim “WOW” upon entering the Lodge.

Built for the summer of 1929, the Lodge houses Kamaji’s rec center (and dining hall and camp kitchen too) where several of Kamaji’s all-camp evening programs take place.  Presided over by the master-of-ceremonies, the caribou — from his perch high on the Lodge’s fieldstone fireplace — is “host” to Kamaji’s theater productions, Variety Shows, Skit Nights and dance parties.  The Lodge is big enough for everyone in camp to gather to sign up for instructional activities or on rainy days for impromptu games of Pillowcase Bingo and Simon Says or raucous songfests in front of a roaring fire in the hearth.  And it is in the Lodge that we hold our last night’s closing camp candlelight ceremony where the candles’ glow reflects off the wavy glass windowpanes and casts a soft light that reaches to the 40 foot high rafters.
