Meals are an important part of your stay at the Greenkill Retreat Center. Our food service staff prepare and serve all meals with care and integrity. Meals are served buffet-style with side features including:
- Morning breakfast bar with fruits, cottage cheese, yogurt

- Morning hot and cold cereal selection
- Fresh salad bars at lunch and dinner

Camp's food service is in the forefront of the YMCA's Activate America initiatives. We support a healthy lifestyle in the foods we serve. We offer fresh fruits in our breakfast bar to include fresh strawberries, blueberries (when in season), cantaloupe, and honeydew along with canned fruits. In addition, we offer fresh vegetables on our salad bars for lunch and dinner and a vegetarian option to create a well balanced diet.
Over the past two years we have been reducing the fat and sugar in our menu while providing meals that campers will enjoy. Our spaghetti and ziti are now made with whole wheat. All oil is zero trans fat oil. Our juices at summer camp are a full 100% fruit juice. Fresh fruit such as grapes has replaced snacks such as cookies. We use lean meat in our menu items like ground turkey and turkey hot dogs. Our pizza is made with a part skim mozzarella cheese, which reduces the fat. We are currently moving away from items like Danish and donuts, which have high fructose corn syrup, to homemade items like banana and pumpkin breads and a variety of muffins made with whole-wheat flour.
We can accommodate dietary needs to include vegetarians and children with food-borne allergies. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at ssumnick@ymcanyc.org.
Sincerely,
Steve Sumnick
