Dates and Timing:
Our 8th graders will get a fulfilling Minikani experience over the course of a two-day trip.
This two-day outdoor education program offers meaningful and practical learning opportunities. The Camp Minikani trip is considered a curricular school day, and attendance is required.

Arrive at school at the usual time.
Leave Webster around 9:00 AM via Riteway bus transport.
Camp Minikani provides lunch and dinner.
Return to Webster around 9:00 PM. Please arrange for your student to be picked up from Webster at this time.
Day 2 - Friday, Sept. 26
Arrive at school at the usual time.
Leave Webster around 9:00 AM via Riteway bus transport.
Lunch provided by Camp Minikani.
Return to Webster around 2:30 PM so that students can catch their regular bus routes home or be picked up at Webster at the usual time of 2:47 PM.
Camp Facilities:
Sanitary buildings with sinks, hot and cold running water, and adequate toilets are provided at camp.
Dining Hall and Food Allergies:
The dining hall comfortably seats all campers and staff. The student's job as a “table hopper” is to set and clear the tables. The kitchen staff provides well-balanced meals served buffet style. All food served at Minikani is nut/tree-nut free. If you have any additional allergies or dietary restrictions, please contact Webster's health aide at ajohnston@cedarburg.k12.wi.us. (Gluten-free meals are available with advance request.)
Camp Staff:
The camp staff includes 8th-grade teachers, some allied arts teachers, principals, and experienced YMCA Camp Minikani instructors.
Transportation and Drop-Off/Pick-Up:
Students will ride from Webster to Camp Minikani and return again by school bus. This is a one-way distance of approximately 20 miles and requires about 30 minutes. During that time, students are expected to remain seated and follow the regular school rules for riding buses. The buses are chaperoned by school staff.
Insurance:
Since the school system offers insurance, it should be noted that the medical cost of injury, sickness, etc. would be the responsibility of the parents or guardians if the child does not have coverage associated with the school system.
