Our Program For over 50 years St. Mary's Camp has been a tradition in excellence  This program offers all campers entering the grades 3rd-12th an opportunity to grow closer in the Orthodox faith by participating in a fun, safe camp atmosphere.  This Pan-Orthodox program offers a unique opportunity to grow our spiritual community in prayer, worship and learning about the Orthodox church .
Special Guests St. Mary's Camp is honored with special guests each year ranging from clergy to monastics to Bishops! His Eminence, Bishop JOB was a frequent visitor of the camp and emphasized the importance for youth ministry and education. Mother Macrina (Holy Dormition Monastery in Rives Junction, MI), Mother Ivonne (Hogar Raphael Ayau Orphanage in Guatemala), and many other local clergy visit, participate, and support our camp program.
Great Staff Our all- orthodox staff is dedicated to not only providing a safe and spiritually educational environment for the campers, but also in having as much fun as possible throughout the week. Counselors, clergy, medical and support staff all come together with their vast levels of life experiences and put together a camper-focused program for your children.
Beautiful Setting Located at Camp Wapogasset in Amery, WI our program offers a variety of fun activities for our participants including horesback riding, ropes courses, sports, arts & crafts,  boating and more.  We have a combination of both cabin and dorms for sleeping and a chapel for worship.

Having Problems?

A number of people have had some difficulty with the new registration system. The problems have generally fallen into two main areas.

1Technical Problems (browser issues, etc.)

2Non-Technical Problems (confusing presentation - where do I go from here?)

Technical Problems
The technical problems have all been related to our use of Javascript on the site. Javascript is a programming language. This site delivers Javascript to your browser to perform certain functions, primarily (although not limited to) form presentation and validation.

Some users have disabled the use of Javascript in their browsers, in the name of security. That's ok, but if you've done this, or if your browser is configured so that Javascript is disabled, then things will NOT function correctly on this site. Sorry. Solution: Enable Javascript in your browser.

Some users are behind secure corporate firewalls that prevent the delivery of external Javascript libraries into their network. In this case, even if you have configured your browser correctly, you may still have problems. Sorry. Solution: Try registering from home, or grab your laptop and head off to your local Internet Cafe.

Finally, some users are using either old browsers, or browsers whose support of Javascript is less than robust. Internet Explorer 6 is notoriously bad. Other broswers, like Safari, are fine browsers, but their support of Javascript is a bit suspect. Solution: Use Mozilla Firefox.

Mozilla Firefox
So far, we've not had any technical problems at all from folks using Mozilla Firefox. If you want to give it a try, visit the Mozilla website.

Non-Technical Problems

The other class of problems basically boil down to the "How Do I Do This?" question. If you visit the Registration link on the main menu at the top of the page, you'll see an article entitled "Welcome - Please Read". This article attempts to tell the whole story about how to use this site to set up your Family Profile and Register for Camp.  If you continue to have questions or issues- please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
