Camp Kresge

About Camp Kresge

YMCA Camp Kresge's Overnight Camp program gives campers ages 7–16 the chance to spend a week building skills, confidence, and friendships in the outdoors. Each one-week session runs from Sunday to Saturday and offers a balanced mix of traditional camp activities.

Campers will take part in a variety of classic camp experiences, including the climbing wall, zip line, high ropes course, archery, boating, hiking, arts & crafts, and time at our lake and aqua park. Evenings at camp include campfires, group games, and cabin activities.

At Camp Kresge, campers are welcomed by our amazing counselors who create a positive and inclusive environment. Our goal is to help each camper try new things, work as a team, and enjoy a fun, active week while being unplugged from technology.

Join us for a summer of unforgettable fun and meaningful experiences at Camp Kresge.
