Welcome to the Camp Michigania section on partofthething.com. Here you
can learn about or reminisce about camp.
Camp Michigania is a family camp owned and operated by the University of
Michigan Alumni Center in Ann Arbor. The camp itself is located in northern
Michigan between Petoskey and Boyne City on the legendary Walloon Lake. The
land covers a good square mile of hills, lake front, and forest. In the summer
season, around four hundred campers come for one-week sessions filled with
boating, riding, rifelry, arts and crafts, ceramics, nature, field sports,
swimming, high-ropes, and relaxation. It is staffed by hard working and highly
qualified college-aged students. The camp was formed in 1962 and some campers
have been coming now for over 40 years. It is a place filled with tradition
and magic. Kids start talking about their next trip to Michigania as they
drive out the gate on the way home.
In the off-season, Michigania is used for meetings and gatherings along with
a few winter relaxation programs.
