Crawford County Ohio's best kept secret!
Located near Bucyrus, Ohio (home of the famous Bratwurst Festival), Camp Michael is not just a 'scout camp' but much, much more! Part of the historic Sandusky Bike Trail, the camp consists of 37 acres of mature hardwood forests and river bottoms along the scenic Sandusky River. We offer nature trails along the river and through the woodlands, wildlife observation stations, an archery range, a challenge course, basketball court, gazebo and much more. Our lodges are available for group functions -church groups, business meetings, educational programs and parties. Each of the lodges has a fully equipped kitchen. Our primitive campsites are maintained in s safe and attractive setting under the mature hardwood trees.

Donations are Tax Exempt
Camp Michael is a 501 C 3 tax exempt organization. This means that any donations made to the camp are fully tax deductable as a charitable donation. There are few places available like Camp Michael that can be experienced for little or no cost. When the Michaels family dedicated the land that has become Camp Michael, their intention was to preserve a place where area youth could learn to appreciate nature. Our mission statement fully encompases that goal:
Camp Michael will provide all young people the opportunity to grow in knowledge about themselves through the outdoor experience. We will encourage them to develop an appreciation and love of wildlife and the environment, learn history, win confidence, develop character, spirituality and moral growth.
Camp Michael has no employees. The Rangers donate their time in exchange for living quarters on the grounds. The members of the Board of Directors donate their time and are not paid. Our operating expenses come from donations, and rental fees for use of the facilities.
Even small amounts help, and all donations are greatly appreciated!
