Open to Chickasaw students ages eight to 14

The goal of this camp is to give Chickasaw youth and their parent or guardian an opportunity to share quality time together while enjoying the natural beauty of the outdoors. The camp provides a safe, wholesome and enjoyable experience where relationships between youth and their parent or guardian can be strengthened while away from the everyday distractions of life.

The camp takes place in the heart of the Arbuckle Mountains at Camp Classen. It offers a variety of exciting and challenging activities including rock wall climbing, canoeing on the lake, hiking up beautiful Warren Mountain, trail riding on horseback, fishing, skeet shooting and archery. Camping is primitive style in a provided tent.
