Overnight Camp

Overnight Camp

The YMCA has been the leader in summer camp for over 130 years. Summer camp experiences are transformational! Campers will spend their time at camp building friendships and learning new skills through adventure and exploration, all while discovering the Y’s values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility. There is no place like camp to discover who you are and the gifts you have to share.

Registration for Summer 2024 is now open!

What should my child bring to camp?
A comprehensive list of what your child should bring to camp is available in the Overnight Family Handbook and will be emailed out prior to camp.
Is there anything my child should NOT bring?
  • Camp is a tech free zone. Phones, smart watches, and other electronic devices must be left at home.
  • All meals and snacks will be provided and food should be left at home and not brought into the cabins. If your camper has special dietary needs and will require supplemental food please contact the camp director.

A full list of what your child should bring to camp is available in the Overnight Family Handbook and emailed out prior to camp.

How are campers placed in cabins?
Campers live in cabins with other campers by grades and gender identity, and under the guidance of their assigned camp counselor. At registration campers will have the opportunity to choose a gendered cabin in which they will feel most comfortable for the session. Campers in different age groups and different cabins will have the opportunity to do activities together throughout the week.
Can my child request to be with a friend?
Making new friends is part of the camp experience. To ensure that our cabins are welcoming to all, we are only able to honor one friend request. Friend requests must be mutual, and both campers must be the same gender identity and within one grade level of each other.
What is the staff to camper ratio?
Cabins have a maximum ratio of 1 staff to 7 campers. Additional staff are also available on camp.
How are camp counselors chosen and what training do they receive?

YMCA camp staff are dedicated to providing a safe and wholesome environment for each camper. Cabin Counselors are chosen for their maturity, strong values, enthusiasm, and ability to be positive role models. Cabin Counselors are assigned to cabins based our belief that they will best serve the campers in the cabin to which they are assigned.

Camp staff are background checked and receive more than 60 hours in training prior to the start of camp. Training includes CPR, First Aid, child abuse prevention, emergency procedures, and water safety.

What if my child has dietary restrictions?
Camp does not cook with or serve peanuts in meals or snacks. Food Services does its best to accommodate all special diets including vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free. Care is given to provide nutritionally balanced food, which meets a broad range of dietary needs and preferences. Individualized meal plans are not offered; however, for guests with dietary restrictions, there are places with refrigerators and microwaves if supplemental food is required.
