About Our Camp Name

One of the most important things we offer our campers is the opportunity to develop friendships. Not only do our campers make lifelong friends, but so do the parents and even our staff. The word Takoda \t(a)-ko-da\ is of Sioux origin; it means “friend to everyone.” We hope that Camp Takoda is your place “Where Friends and Memories are Made.”
