Summer Camps

Experience the best Summer ever!

At Camp Jewell YMCA, we believe in giving campers the freedom to choose their own adventure. Our wide range of activities ensures that every child finds something that sparks their interest and fuels their excitement. From trying out something entirely new to diving deeper into a favorite hobby, there’s always something for everyone.

Sleepaway Camp

For Campers Age 7-15

Sending your kids to sleepaway camp may be the most rewarding thing you can do this summer. It offers a safe and fun environment where they can rediscover the sense of adventure that may have been missing during these challenging times. At Camp Jewell, your child will have the opportunity to build meaningful connections with other campers, foster self-confidence, and explore new activities. All of this under the guidance of positive role models who are there every step of the way.

Equestrian / Ranch Camp

For Beginner Through Advanced Riders

At Camp Jewell YMCA’s Hide-a-Way Ranch, our sleepaway equestrian camp offers a unique experience for both beginner and advanced riders. Set in a traditional camp environment with a special focus on horseback riding, this program is centered around English-style riding and comprehensive horse care. These shared experiences bring campers together in a way that fosters deep connections, not only within their cabins and riding groups but also with the staff and each other.

What Our Campers and Parents Say

Teen Leadership Programs

Training for Teens Ages 15-16

Our Leadership in Training (LIT) and Counselor in Training (CIT) programs provide an amazing experience focused on individual development, team building, and self-discovery all while having fun at camp. With a schedule that is unique to their villages, they spend time learning about leadership, as well as practicing and developing their skills. Campers leave our LIT program more confident of their skills in public speaking, decision-making and problem solving.

Day Camp

For children entering grades K-6

Our Day Camp Programs emphasize the development of confidence, integrity, and positive interactions in a secure, enjoyable, and nurturing setting. With a remarkable ratio of one highly trained staff member for every five campers, our camps ensure attentive supervision and care. Our day campers have access to a variety of activities and experiences unique to a premier resident camp and year-round outdoor center. Every week features a new theme, allowing day campers to engage in numerous activities alongside our overnight camp attendees.

CAMP CLIO

A CAMP FOR ADOPTED CHILDREN
Camp Clio at Camp Jewell provides a safe and supportive environment where adopted children can explore their birth stories and connect with others who share similar experiences. In this nurturing, judgment-free space, they can find comfort in knowing they are not alone.
