YMCA Camp Winona

Summer Camp: We have been providing a traditional camp experience for children for over 100 years. Campers will stay in cabins (with AC!) with other campers of the same gender and similar age. During the week, campers will have the opportunity to choose their own adventure and pick what they want to really focus on; programs include archery, riflery, arts and crafts, canoes, outdoor living skills, fishing, athletics, music, and more.

Mini Camp: Not sure if your younger camper is quite old enough for a full overnight experience? Mini Camp is the perfect introduction to Camp for those younger campers and campers that are a little nervous. Campers will get a taste of Overnight Camp in a three day, two night experience, participating in many of our Traditional Camp activities. Give it a try and see if your camper is going to be ready for the full week. If your Camper does a Mini Camp during or leading up to Summer and is 7 years old, call us for special entry to our one week program.

Teen Camp: In this camp, teens will get more camp than ever before! Our Teens will begin to build leadership skills and push their limits to realize their potential. Their schedule will be more teen friendly. This camp is also two weeks long! This is to make sure they get more time doing activities, socializing and becoming independent in a safe environment.

Teen Camp is a great step to our Leaders in Training (LIT) and Counselors in Training (CIT) program!

Leaders in Training: This is a great transitional program from Traditional and Teen Camp to our Counselors-In-Training (CIT) Program. This two-week program focuses on developing leadership skills, team building, and life skills while also enjoying their favorite camp activities. This camp session is two full weeks including the weekend in between. The program not only comes with the benefits of personal improvement for attendees but benefits such as community service hours as they give back through leadership.

Counselers in Training: The CIT program is a full three week camp experience for young leaders who have a desire to train as counselors and continue building their leadership skills. They will begin to transition from camper to potential staff. We not only focus on their ability to be a Summer Camp Counselor in the future with Camp Winona but their future professionalism in the work environment. They learn the expectations of the work place, how to be interviewed and how to be a larger part in a functioning team.
