CAMP NEIDIG

CAMP EXPERIENCE

Building the Leaders of Tomorrow

Guest Speakers

Campers will interact with several guest speakers from various professional backgrounds who will discuss what it means to be a good leader. These experiences along with Q&A sessions allow the campers to hear about real life leadership examples and stories.

Problem Solving

Throughout the weekend, campers will participate in a series of problem solving stations that will both mentally and physically challenge the campers to work as a team. Each problem solving activity has been designed to test and refine specific leadership skills.

Workshops

All campers will participate in one multi-session workshop during the course of the weekend. These workshops allow the campers to put their leadership skills to the test as they are responsible for leading each of them.

THE NEIDIG LEGACY

Growing Young Leaders Since 1950

Camp Neidig was created by Joseph S. Neidig, governing officer of Rotary District 2654, in 1950. During his term as governing officer, Neidig founded the "Leaders of Tomorrow," a camp at Camp Delmont in Green Lane, Pennsylvania. The purpose of this camp was to further the leadership abilities of young boys.

After District 2654 split in 1961, the newly-formed District 7430 decided to rename the camp "Camp Neidig" in honor of the camp's founder.

In 1990, females were invited to camp for the first time, as Camp Neidig became a co-educational experience. Through 1994, the camp was held at Camp Conrad Weiser in Wernersville. Camp Manatawny near Boyertown then hosted the camp from 1995 through 2000. In 2001, Camp Neidig moved to the Pocono Valley Resort. Three years later, Neidig proudly returned to Camp Manatawny in 2004 where it has been held ever since.
