Campers Can Choose to Take a Trip “Off-Camp” During Their Session Campers can choose to take a trip “off-camp” during their session. We offer two different types of trips: overnights are dedicated to Wilderness Leadership principles and offer a great introduction to camping and back packing. Day trips give campers an opportunity to experience some of northern Michigan’s favorite landmarks, destinations and local establishments. Overnights Big Wild (All Ages) Big Wild Overnight is an introductory level wilderness trip. Campers set up base camp in the Pigeon River Country or at Wilderness State Park and head out for a 3-5 mile hike. They then return to base camp to cook dinner and make s’mores over the fire. The trip returns to AGQ in time for breakfast the next day. Frodo (Ages 12-16) The Frodo Journey is a 5 Day/4 night backpacking trip in northern Michigan. Accompanied by two counselors, the group will cook over a fire, traverse dunes, hills and forest. This program trip is an amazing way to become acquainted with the outdoors and learn about outdoor leadership. Campers must register before camp begins. Day Trips Mackinaw (12-16) Each two week session, campers have the option to go to Mackinaw Island for a day of fun. The group will visit Historic Mackinaw, taste loads of fudge samples and enjoy a walk around the island. The cost of the trip varies depending on ferry prices. Mystery (All Ages) Each week, 14-20 campers have the option to embark on a mystery trip. These trips will take campers to a Michigan landmark, state park or local establishment. Campers sign-up without knowing what the activity will be but quickly enjoy their time! Past trips have visited Kilwin’s chocolate factory, Petoskey State Park or Bill’s Farm Market. The cost of this trip is typically ranges from $10-$20. Registration for this trip takes place during sign-ups at camp. .

  • Download the Inland Waterway and Straits Area Water Trails Plan
    Water Trail Plan Inland Waterway and Straits Area Cheboygan and Emmet Counties Funded by: Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce and the Michigan Coastal Management Program, Michigan Department of Environmental Quality with support from the Emmet County, Cheboygan County, Mackinaw City, and volunteers. June 2014 1 Inland Waterway and Straits Area Water Trail Plan Introduction The Inland Waterway is a 40 mile long historic water route that connects Lake Huron by way of Cheboygan, Indian River, Alanson, and Conway and with series of long portages at the headwaters to Petoskey State Park and Lake Michigan. A coastal route, part of the Huron Shores Blueways, connects the City of Cheboygan to Mackinaw City and the Straits of Mackinac. Like the interior water trails, the coastal waters have been used for transportation for thousands of years. The Inland Waterway has long been marketed as the motor boating paradise. Sitting along the banks of the Indian River on a summer afternoon and watching a steady stream of motored craft pass by, attests to the marketing success. There has never been a multi-community effort to organize and promote a paddle trail. Human-powered quiet water sports are among the fastest growing outdoor recreation activities. Combined with other active sports facilities such as the North Central State Trail, North Western State Trail and the North Country Trail, the water trail will bring visitors to the area, add to the quality of life for residents and enhance the rural-recreation sense of place. Furthermore, development of the water trail represents a regional, multi organization effort and will support economic development in the region of the state dependent upon recreational visitors.
