Find Your Y and Camp

Developing resilient, strong, caring, confident youth – and having a whole lot of fun at the same time.
 

That’s what YMCA overnight camps are all about. 

Why go to overnight camp?

• Camp is a place to unplug from everything at home in a safe, fun and growth-inspiring environment.
• Camp is a living lab where independence, decision-making, confidence, empathy and healthy connections are built. 
• Ys invest in highly trained counselors who invest in our campers and foster meaningful and memorable camp experiences that provide countless opportunities to laugh, lead and make lasting friendships. 

Where are NC overnight camps located?

• From the mountains to the Piedmont plateau to the coastal plains, YMCA overnight camps are located throughout the state. Scroll down to see all the camps.

Is financial assistance provided?

• Y camps welcome all children because our communities are stronger when everyone can take part in programs where they can learn, grow and thrive.
• Contact camps directly to learn about their financial assistance option; we want all children to benefit from the life-changing experiences camp offers. 

My Y Is Every Y! 

We welcome members to utilize the Y as often as they can. With Nationwide Membership, Y members can visit any Y when traveling to another region or state at no extra charge. Simply present your active YMCA membership card and photo ID at the Y you’re visiting, and enjoy free access.
