Summer Sleepaway Camp

A Bully-Free Summer Sleepaway Camp

Welcome to summer camp. In 1881, 30 boys from New York City's YMCA went on one of the first ever summer camp adventures. In 1885, Sumner F Dudley, a New York YMCA volunteer took 15 boys on a camping trip that formed two YMCA camps that are still in existence today.

Now, 128 years later, New York YMCA Camp is known as a Global Camp, where children from all over the globe come to share safe adventures, great fun and build new friendships. We invite you this summer to be a part of our unique globally diverse camp.
