The Junior Side of Camp Maas has been reserved especially for our youngest campers. Within a short walking distance away are exciting program areas such as the waterfront, sport fields, roller-skating/floor hockey rink, arts and crafts and our “Olde Tyme Pioneer Skills Center.”

The second and third graders live in our newest area, which has all new cabins. Each cabin is spacious and has its own bathroom, shower facilities and roomy cupboards. The lodge is centrally located to all cabins to allow for additional unit programming and the residence of the village supervisors.

The fourth and fifth graders live in Deroy and Fishman villages. All cabins have bathrooms, while the centralized lodges provide extra program areas and showers.
