    Programs and Sessions Calendar

    From the moment a camper steps onto Birch Island, they become part of our family. At Camp Mi-A-Kon-Da, we work hard to create an inclusive and diverse community that empowers and supports one another. Through this community we encourage campers and staff alike to build their confidence, independence, identity, and leadership. Alumni often reflect on their time at Camp Mi-A-Kon-Da as being a special place where they were able to learn more about themselves than any other experience.

    Director's Message

    Mi-A-Kon-Da, Pam Lamont, Owner/Director
    Why Mi-A-Kon-Da is important -

    Young girls from all over the world, of all ages attend Camp Mi-A-Kon-Da, creating a lifetime of learning, friends and fun. For over 60 years Mi-A-Kon-Da continues to have campers, staff and alumni return each summer.

    I believe that all girls should have that one special place and time where they can truly be themselves, feel safe and secure in that environment to experience and try new things they have the power to choose. This is what Mi-A-Kon-Da provides to every girl, her own special place in the world that is all hers, to be themselves.

    "Mi-A-Kon-Da is a magical place. There is no other place like it. We come to enjoy nature, make friends, depart, grow and come back again."

     - Pam Lamont

    Staff and Counsellors

    All of our counsellor staff have developed to become strong leaders and role models through years of experience and growth at Camp Mi-A-Kon-Da. One thing that makes us unique is that every single one of our counsellors has, at some point, been a camper at Mi-A-Kon-Da. This makes them intimately familiar with camp life and allows them to connect with campers on a deeper level, further integrating them into the camp family.
