All kids deserve to explore the outdoors — swimming, hiking, horseback riding, being themselves, building skills and meeting new friends. 

Connecting Kids With Nature & Each Other

We fill each week at YMCA Camp Willson with unique experiences, such as learning how to kayak or jumping on our water trampoline for the first time. These experiences come with new friends and challenges that shape campers into confident, independent people.
