125 Years of Tradition
Top Rated Sleepaway Camp in CT
Action and Adventure!
Small by Design
Awosting is intentionally sized so every camper is known by name. Our leadership team is present daily, and no child slips through the cracks.
Every Camper Finds His Thing
Whether a camper loves competition, creativity, or just being outdoors, our varied program helps each boy discover new interests.
Boys Grow Here
Independence is built step by step. With clear expectations and daily rhythm, boys gain confidence without feeling overwhelmed.
Camp Awosting, located on Bantam Lake in Connecticut, has offered boys a summer of growth, adventure, and friendship since 1900. Our mission is to help boys build confidence and independence through engaging activities in a supportive community.
For over a century, we’ve combined tradition with fun, guiding campers through over 40 activities that foster personal development, resilience, and lasting memories.
Awosting is led by a hands-on leadership team that believes relationships come first. We notice when a camper feels unsure, celebrate small wins, and partner closely with families — especially during a child’s first summer away from home.
There’s a rhythm to Awosting days – steady mornings, full days of activity and choice, and camp wide games every evening before things slow down with laughs, stories, and connection. It’s the kind of summer that sticks, and one that leaves boys more confident, capable, and fully themselves.
Flexible Camp Options
Choose the perfect fit for your family, from a one-week Rookie session at $2,500 to the full 8-week summer experience at $12,975.

My 9 year old son just returned from four weeks at Awosting and he said it was the best summer of his life. We were so impressed with everything. The facilities are gorgeous, the counselors were awesome and fun but also reliable, the leadership was communicative and supportive…and it was just so much fun. This place is just paradise for boys. Easy to get to, food is excellent, and they have great medical staff as well. A magical place!

Our son spent 4 great summers at Awosting! This camp nurtures; brotherhood, confidence, independence and experience. Each summer our son made life long friendships with campers and counselors from all over the world. We love Awosting and highly recommend it to any boy looking for a couple of weeks or a whole summer of fun-filled adventure.
