For the first time, September 4-6, 2025, OPM and YMCA Camp Menogyn are thrilled to offer a two-night stay at camp at the beginning of Plein Air Grand Marais' Competition Week!
The cost $250 per person, including two nights lodging and all meals: Dinner on Thursday; breakfast, lunch and dinner on Friday; and breakfast and lunch on Saturday.
We'll leave Grand Marais as a caravan from the Cook County Co-Op on Thursday at 1:00pm, arriving at the parking lot and boat launch for a pontoon ride to Menogyn at about 1:45pm. We have nothing to do but paint, explore, paddle, and enjoy each other's company over meals in the dining hall. We leave camp on Saturday afternoon and arrive in Grand Marais by dinnertime.
NO HANDICAP ACCESSIBILITY: Please be aware that Menogyn is a wilderness camp with no facilities for wheelchairs or facilitating limited mobility. Camp is located across Bearskin Lake from the parking lot and is accessible only by boat. We sleep in group cabins with bunk rooms with 6 single beds. Enclosed pit toilets are located on trails near the cabins. There is a pit toilet at the parking lot. On the camp side of the lake, the dining hall and toilet facilities are located a 5 minute walk uphill from the boat landing.
What to bring:
- Sleeping bag or bedroll and pillow
- Plein air rig and art supplies
- Sun, rain, and insect repellent
Cancellation Policy:
Menogyn charges per person based on actual number of participants. OPM will hold funds until the day of departure and can issue refunds in case of cancellation until payment is made to Menogyn. No refunds are made for early departures, nor any discount for shorter stays.
