Concordia Language Villages' Russian Camp

Concordia Language Villages is a recognized leader in global education, offering language and cultural programs in 14 languages. Every year, Concordia Language Villages engages thousands of youth, educators and adults from across the United States in language and cultural learning. Our world-class immersion camp settings in the North Woods of Minnesota provide unique environments in which youth and adults at all levels of language proficiency can truly live the language.

At Lesnoe Ozero, Лесное озеро, our Russian Language Village, you’ll experience living in another language and participating in cultural activities from a variety of countries and cultures where Russian is widely spoken. Design your own nesting matryoshka doll or Ukrainian pysanky (Easter egg); explore music such as Tuvan throat-singing, Tchaikovsky and the three-stringed balalaika; practice your dance skills with the acrobatic Ukrainian hopak or the lyrical Central Asian kara jorga; or develop your culinary talents by cooking blini (crepe-style pancakes) or hachapuri (Georgian cheese bread). You’ll also learn more about important current and past world events in our history and international relations activities. Explore new cultures at Lesnoe Ozero!
