Ever wanted to travel back in time to the fun of summer camp—and this time take the family? Sign up for weeklong Family Camp at Camps Lincoln and Lake Hubert, August 13–19 near Nisswa. The century-old camps (Lincoln for boys and Lake Hubert for girls) have offered a family week for more than 30 years. It’s a great time to bond with the entire gang while seeing if younger kids are ready for traditional summer camp. During the day, sign up for activities to try together—scaling a 56-foot climbing wall, archery, canoeing and kayaking, sailing, windsurfing, high lines and ziplines, even trap shooting. Between activities, enjoy meals served family style. In the evening, relax with bingo, folk dancing, or a campfire near the shore of Lake Hubert. Your family will bunk in its “chalet” (three chalets to a cabin, with bathrooms down the hall). Kids of any age can come to family camp. Grandparents are welcome, too.

August 13–19, teens and adults $850, kids 4–12 $650, kids 3 and under free; 800-242-1909
