YMCA Camp Minikani
YMCA Camp Minikani is a residential summer camp located along the shores of Lake Amy Belle in Hubertus, Wisconsin, in Washington County, Wisconsin, United States. YMCA was established in 1919 by the Milwaukee YMCA. Minikani is also home to one of the cleanest lakes in Wisconsin, Mud Lake. At its conception, Minikani served as a summer camp for boys living in the Milwaukee Area who came for two weeks to learn camp skills and participated in competitive athletic events. Minikani has since transformed to a co-ed camp that has shifted from competitive activities to challenge by choice to eliminate the emotional pressure of competitions. Minikani still offers its traditional summer programs such as the Pioneer Unit, Indian Unit, and the Explorer Unit and has since began to offer Day Camp and Equestrian Camps.
== The meaning of Minikani ==
The meaning of the word Minikani stems from Native American roots and is believed to have a double meaning. In Menomonee, the word Menukunee means, "a place of beginnings", and in Chippewa a different word, Minikani, means "a place where seeds are planted.".〔http://www.minikani.org/site/pp.asp?c=bnJMKRNmFkG&b=734471〕 This double meaning is appropriate to the mission of YMCA summer camps to provide a place for children to participate in new activities and become comfortable in social settings with other campers.
