Aloha Foundation: Lanakila

Lanakila specializes in boys: their interests, energy and the challenges that help them excel. Its a natural place for a boy to shed the distractions of wired 21st-century life, and live simply, discovering the best he can be.

Lanakila welcomes 3rd-8th grade boys and gender nonbinary youth (with a leadership program for those in 10th grade). We invite families to learn more about us and discover if our camps are a good fit for you and your child.

Campers try something new or hone longtime skills at Lanakila every day. Want to sail across the lake in the Viking Ship? Climb a mountain for a trail lunch at the top, and sing funny songs all the way down? Draw a picture of something beautiful or make a paddle out of wood? Zoom 100 feet down a zip wire from the treetops to the ground? Play an instrument or put on a funny act in a Talent or Skit Night? Sing and dance in the camp musical on Show Weekend? Lanakila campers participate in all these kinds of activities and many more of their choosing each camp day. And weve created our own games and traditions for challenge and fun: American Ball, archery-golf, baseball and street hockey tournaments, the Lanakila Arts Festival, a 4th of July Carnival, and a marathon swim around Lake Morey that we call the Purple Albatross.
