About
Camp Kateri Tekakwitha is a Catholic summer camp located in McCool Junction, Nebraska. It is a ministry of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Lincoln and is funded by the generous support of our patrons and donors. Bought in 1998, the camp was named after Saint Kateri Tekakwitha.
During the summer, we offer numerous programs for campers (grades 3 – 12). Camp Kateri is also a retreat and conference center, and we conduct outdoor education programs for our Catholic Schools.
