CAROWANIS camp

Financial aid - Mingie

What is the
Mingie Grant?

The Walter Mingie Grant embodies the spirit of the Carowanis community by providing financial support to families who wish to send their children to camp for the very first time. So that all children, regardless of their financial situation, can participate in the wonderful camp programs and enjoy all the enriching experiences Carowanis has to offer.

This grant was created to honor the memory of Mr. Mingie, the first camp director at Carowanis, whose commitment to the cause, the outdoors, and the development of children through outdoor activities inspired an entire generation of campers.

This grant is a testament to Mr. Mingie’s commitment to the Carowanis community, as well as to the generosity and philanthropic spirit of all those who contributed to its creation.

How to obtain the
Mingie Grant?

The Mingie Grant is obtained by submitting an application on the Ultra camp site of Camp Carowanis. There are 7 steps to the application process.
