Camp Canopy Sponsorships

What is Camp Canopy?

Camp Canopy is a week-long resident camp for high school students held each year in June at Camp Muskingum in Carroll County. The camp is about a 1.5 hour drive south of Cuyahoga County.

Camp Canopy is centered around teaching students about forest ecology including silviculture practices, tree identification, and forestry products. While it is primarily an academic program, Camp Canopy offers excellent facilities for swimming, softball, and other fun recreational activities. It is a unique experience that will expose students to the great outdoors and to possible careers in forestry, conservation and natural resource protection.

2025 Camp Canopy Dates

This year Camp Canopy will be held June 8th-13th, 2025. For more information about Camp Canopy visit their website at campcanopy.com.

We need your help!

Cuyahoga SWCD offers annual sponsorships for local students to help offset the cost to experience Camp Canopy for Cuyahoga students ($450 for a full week). Donations from local residents help us provide additional sponsorships as funds are available.
