CAMP ADVENTURE
Camp Adventure is a fun and exciting summer experience where boys and girls, can make new friends, learn new skills and have a great time both in and outdoors.

The heart of the Camp Adventure experience is the small close-knit group of 10-12 campers who, together with their counselor, plan and carry out a variety of activities such as recreational swimming in the Y pool, hiking, singing, outdoor cooking, crafts, field trips, nature studies, inspirational times, group games and sports are designed to ensure success, confidence and self-esteem, which are fundamental in all YMCA youth programs.

While most of the time is spent in small groups, campers also plan times which larger groups or the entire camp will get together for special events. Since campers are involved in the planning, each week of camp is unique; no two sessions are exactly alike.

LOCATION

Camp Adventure will be located at the Blakley Family YMCA and the camp will be both indoors and outdoors. Regular campers should be dropped off at the YMCA by 9:00 a.m. and picked up from the YMCA by 4:00 p.m. An extra fee is charged for late pick-ups or early drop-offs.
