Chinqueka

Camp Chinqueka is an all-girls summer camp located in Bantam, Connecticut. This camp is easily the classiest camp in New England as it draws wealthy, athletic and intelligent girls from all over the nation. Chinqueka has a brother camp called Camp Awosting. The camp sessions begin in late June and end mid-August. Chinqueka is known for its endless traditions as the summer camp was founded over 50 years ago and is still run by the Ebner family. A few camp favorites include twins Becky and Sam Endersby and their little sister Joanne; The Nevel sisters; the always lovely Karen Rogers; a beautiful aussie named Anna-Lisse Murphy; little Amanda Ward and the recent highest camp honors winner, Chelsea Banazchek.

The best girls camp in the world! I have been going to camp here for 5 years and they were honestly the best summers of my life. Every girl here will become your best friend, whether its the girls in your cabin, or the cute little 6 year olds in cabin 1. I would't trade my summers here for anything. Attending camp has made me into the person I am today. Without Chinqueka, I wouldn't have the confidence I have now and I owe it all to the amazing staff, campers, and activities. Each summer is better than the previous one. There are three tribes: the Arapahos (green), Senecas (purple), and Maricopas (yellow). Your first year of camp you are placed onto one of them and you are a part of it for life. The tribes are led by 2 super spirited senior campers who get cool headbands with their chieftain name that is decided for them by Amanda, the most amazing camp director you will ever meet.
