Item Description

This item offers two free weeks of Sleepaway camp, in 2012, at New York YMCA Camps, along with a special coupon to bring a friend for half off our tuition price. For two weeks these friends will join hundreds of children from around the world in camp’s bully-free community.

The New York YMCA Camp located in Huguenot, New York is a globally diverse bully-free community built upon the YMCA core values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility. Our camp is an emotionally and physically safe community where children will make new friends, learn new skills and have great fun.

Campers are secure in our bully-free camp from day one. Friendships are immediately fostered through team-building and cabin activities. By supporting each camper within a cabin, our counselors help campers form the relationships for which our camp is known. Children create life-long friendships at our camp.

The Camp is located 86 miles from the city in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains, New York YMCA Camp’s 1,150 acres of pristine wilderness is a collection of beautiful lakes, streams, waterfalls, ridges, vistas and miles of hiking trails. Set between the historical villages, hamlets and towns of the Neversink and Delaware River, our lush green forest is home to deer, turkeys, foxes, many species of bird and aquatic life.

Here's what some campers and parents have to say about the camp...

"The New York YMCA Camp is a most special place for children. It gives a wonderful sense of self and responsibility... The counselors treat the children with the utmost respect and take special care in comforting the parents."

"My daughter's Outdoor Adventures trip was wonderful. . . you allowed her to safely explore uncharted territory with knowledgeable and educated staff... Although the journey was brief, the depth was immeasurable; a young girl embarked and a young woman returned."
