What to know for Y Camp

Information for Campers

Who will be in your group?

You will be in a group of about 14 boys and girls.  Your groups have been chosen for you by your teachers after they have watched who you work well with.  Each group will also have two chaperons... a mom and a dad of one of the group members.  You'll be with these groups for all of your activities.

Who will be in your cabin?

You will also be assigned to either an all boy cabin or an all girl cabin.  Your cabin may have students from other groups than your own.  Also, each cabin will have two dads or two moms staying in them, along with a teacher.  

What should you bring?

You'll need to bring a positive attitude and a lot of excitement for what you'll be doing.  You need to wear clothes that will let you run and play in the grass, explore the woods and streams, climb onto horses and rock walls, and walk around all day in.  Don't forget a sleeping bag and your bathroom stuff, and also don't forget a water bottle!  You can download a supply list below. 

What will you do?

You will travel with your group through a lot of different and fun stations.  You'll have the opportunity to ride horses, climb on the rock wall, go down by the streams, dissect owl pellets, hike in the woods, learn about nature, and have a great time outside with your friends and teachers!  The Media section on the top toolbar under “More” will show you great pictures of what we do!

What will we eat?

On the first day, you'll need to pack your own sack lunch.  Be sure to put it in a bag you can throw it away, and also we'll have drink at camp so you don't need to bring one.  That night we'll have dinner in the dining hall, and the next morning we'll have a hot breakfast there as well. We’ll eat lunch in the dining hall on the last day and you’ll be home in time for dinner!

You're going to have a great time! Get excited!
