Our goal is to provide an environment where campers can grow physically, mentally and spiritually through challenging activities in both small and large group settings under the guidance of experienced YMCA staff. Our Summer Camp programs are designed for children ages 5—16. We offer a host of safe, structured and fun activities. All camps focus on friendship and exploration with activities that include: swimming, environmental learning, physical fitness and field trips. Lunch and a snack are also included for all campers. Camp registration begins in early Spring.
At YMCA Camp every day is an adventure. Youth and teens learn to be honest and care, to respect, to be responsible for themselves and the environment. These are the values that make YMCA camping different and extraordinary. Join us for an adventure — learn something for a lifetime!
The Licking County Family YMCA is an American Camping Association Accredited Camp.
Traditional Camp
Traditional Day Camp offers recreational swimming, games, an introduction to team sports, theme based arts and crafts activities, environmental projects, skits, storytelling, and special guests.
Sports/Specialty Camps
Sports camps are designed to help participants grow physically, mentally and spiritually. We challenge campers to improve skills through activities in both small and large group settings under the guidance of caring well-trained staff members. All of our sports camps are recreational, non-competitive camps which include every participant emphasizing the YMCA's core values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility. Fair play and sportsmanship is expected at all times.
Specialty camps may appeal to campers who are looking for more educational or non-traditional camp experiences. Specialty camps are based both indoors and out, and may include field trips during the week.
All sports and specialty campers take part in some traditional camp activities like swimming and lunch.
LIT Programs
The YMCA offers exciting opportunities for teens, ages 13—16, to experience summer fun and develop leadership skills through LIT summer programs. LITs have an opportunity to begin friendships for the summer while getting the training they need to be successful as volunteers helping our day camp. LIT campers work as a group to explore and enhance their leadership skills, self-confidence, self-esteem while learning the importance of responsibility. LITs participate in team building activities, receive American Red Cross certification in First Aid and CPR.
