In Memory of Dan Carpenter Jr.

Dan’s contributions to Keewaydin and generations of Keewaydin campers and staff were immense. From his years guiding countless sections (including leading 15 trips to Hudson Bay), to his time as camp director, to his ongoing connection to camp as a nearby islander, he left an indelible mark on the Keewaydin community. 

Donations to Keewaydin in memory of Dan will be directed to the Carpenter Family Long Trips Fund - A fund established in 2010 by a group of alumni and friends to honor the Carpenter family’s incredible legacy of service to Keewaydin. This fund provides support for Keewaydin Temagami long-distance canoe trips, to ensure that Keewaydin Temagami staff and campers continue to explore the Canadian wilderness in the Keewaydin way and following the example set by the Carpenters.
