Founded in 1957 and located on beautiful Cape Cod, Camp Wingate*Kirkland is a co-ed, overnight camp for children ages 7-16 and day camp for children ages 4-12 that offers a unique experience.

The W*K community is small and nurturing, with ~200 campers and a staff-camper ratio of 1:3. We offer a full range of traditional camp activities such as waterfront, archery, woodshop, arts & crafts, music, performing arts and athletics however we also offer zany stuff like Balloon Animal Hospital, Whistle Choir, 80s Kayak Dancing, Tennis Baseball, and Ethical Dilemmas.

We think our Daily Choice program is one of the most unique ideas anywhere in camping today. Campers are empowered to choose their own schedule, designing their perfect summer. Our program invites camper feedback and input, with a belief that everyone has something special to offer.

We believe that when children are part of a kind, supportive and respectful community, they feel free to step out of their comfort-zone and try new things without the fear of failure. W*K is that community. Camper safety and developing life skills are our priorities.
