Character building, quality programs since 1918... serving kids of all ages the YMCA way for 92 years!
Camp Willson is a place where kids can unplug, enjoy the outdoors, and be themselves.
Our college aged counselors are cool, caring, responsible, fun individuals. One or two counselors live
in each cabin of up to 8 campers, providing 24 hour supervision.
Safety is our #1 priority. Willson staff participate in a rigorous hiring process including
interviews, reference and background checks; in addition to extensive training.
Campers are assigned to cabins by age. Up to three friends can be together in the same cabin.
Eight different one-week programs to choose from, with free stayover weekends between sessions.
Camp out one night a week with S’mores, pie iron pizzas, and tinfoil dinners around the campfire!
High Ropes Adventure Course, the Giant Swing, and the Water Trampoline!
Accommodations include recently constructed cabins that are a short distance from up-to-date
restrooms, as well as winterized cabins, complete with restrooms.
Our health supervisor lives on-site and provides for the health care needs of all campers.
