YMCA Activate America!
YMCA Activate America™ is the YMCA’s national initiative that is rallying YMCAs across the country to further assist kids, adults and families who want to lead a healthy lifestyle, but struggle to do so. In addition to supporting this population called health seekers, YMCAs are making a commitment to their community to promote healthy living and are collaborating with other community partners to magnify their impact.
Camp Jewell YMCA is fully committed to the Activate America initiative, and is dedicated to providing campers, families, and guests with programs, facilities, and services that promote healthy living, exercise, and nutrition, all within our unique camp environment.
