Camp Wingate*Kirkland is a small, co-ed overnight camp located in Yarmouth Port, Massachusetts. Its program centers on six guiding principles: community, tradition, trust, respect, choice, and fun, and brings together athletics, arts and crafts, swimming, boating, performing arts, and community service to support skill development and personal expression. A key element of its approach is daily choice: each morning, Planning Session introduces the day's offerings and campers select activities that align with their interests. The camp emphasizes diversity and aims to be a welcoming space where campers who may not be the most athletic or popular can explore self-expression despite school social pressures. In the evenings, the entire community gathers for Evening Forum to share accomplishments, acknowledge support, and discuss ideas for improving Camp. Based in Yarmouth Port, Massachusetts, the organization operates within the recreational facilities sector and maintains a focus on creating an inclusive camp experience.
