Y camp provides youth with supervised activities that teach core values, conflict resolution and leadership skills. Campers have fun while making new friends, building self-confidence, appreciating teamwork and growing in self-reliance. For youth, Y camp is a fun and happy place to enjoy the summer, play games, create arts and crafts, explore science, swim, participate in in-house optional field trips and appreciate nature.

Your child will have a few classes each week in traditional activities where they will try different activities around camp with their age group, including swimming every day.

Once your child arrives at camp and goes through orientation, he/she will get to choose their PATH for one to two additional mastery activities, including science, academic achievement study buddy programs, outdoor adventure, water fun, all around sports, cheer and dance, all around new games, nature nuts programs and more.

Together you and your child may decide to upgrade your camp experience by adding pre-paid mastery skills to your menu ofoptions. Horseback riding, swim lessons and Adventure tower are some of those upgrade items. Note: Bring a trash bag to protect your leather seats. Your child will come home tired, dirty and inspired.
