Camp Chinqueka boasts a beautiful lakeside setting on Mt. Tom Pond in the rolling hills of Connecticut's Litchfield County. Campers stay in one of 14 cabins on the premises. Campers that attend Chinqueka get to know the caring and experienced staff. 2 counselors live in each cabin with the campers. All of our cabins are wood sided and have toilets and sinks. Campers shower in one of the central shower houses. Our activity areas are scattered about the campus from our waterfront with our fleet of boats, canoes and sailboats to "Sunnyfield" where our Mini-Bikes and Go-Kart tracks are located. In between, we have several activity areas including a Climbing Tower and Zip Line, our Archery range, large indoor sport facility (pictured here), indoor activity areas for Gymnastics, Journalism & Computers, Fencing, Photography, Video Filming, Arts & Crafts, Ceramics, Music & Dance, Drama and Woodshop. In addition, we have our many sport courts & fields, including 3 Tennis courts and playing areas dedicated for Basketball, Softball, Soccer and Volleyball.

Kid-friendly and nutritious meals are served family style in Chinqueka's spacious dining hall. Counselors dine with and supervise the campers at each meal. In addition, we have special theme buffet dinners throughout the summer, many with our brother camp, Awositng.

The center of the camp is the "Lodge" - a large white house overlooking the lake and the pine grove, where the cabins are all located.  Many parents that send their campers to Chinqueka often note that we have one of the most beautiful spots on this lake, or any lake for that matter. It is a peaceful retreat away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
