Camp Fire Oneida has offered a traditional camp experience through Camp Birchrock, by encouraging fun through individual and group skill advancement activities while practicing Leave No Trace guidelines, all since 1949. All camp program activities take place at Camp Birchrock’s beautiful 200 wooded acre, three lake facility located west of Rhinelander at 6648 County Highway K. All activities are under the watchful eyes of an energetic, experienced, and fully CPR/First Aid certified staff.
Camp Birchrock Day Camp is your outdoor adventure just down the road! Each day is full of exploration and fun in a well-structured schedule. Our Day Camp program encourages campers to learn new skills, build confidence, create new friendships, and explore the natural world. Groups are kept small and led by trained counselors who are dedicated and passionate about helping youth create a week of endless adventures and fun. Flexible scheduling allows campers to attend full weeks or individual days. Membership discounts and scholarships are available for this program.

The Leader in Training (L.I.T.) program is designed for our older campers who are ready for something more and runs alongside regular day camp days and times. The L.I.T. program is for campers who are interested in gaining more responsibility, independence, and exploring their sparks. In this program, L.I.T.s work with our Lead Counselor to learn how to manage camper behavior in age-appropriate ways, understand best practices to encourage campers, how to lead games and activities, self and group reflection techniques and goal-setting. L.I.T.s will help direct what activities and challenges their group will take on each week. The skills learned in the L.I.T. program are skills that participants can use outside of camp in school, sports, extracurricular activities, and religious groups. Our staff is trained to create opportunities that will allow the L.I.T.s to practice their skills working with younger campers while still allowing times for them to have fun and participate in activities separate from younger campers. Flexible scheduling allows L.I.T.s to attend full weeks or individual days. Membership discounts and scholarships are available for this program.
