Boys and girls can attend YMCA Camp Cha-La-Kee, which surrounds the beautiful Lake Guntersville. It's one of the best sleepaway camps in Northern Alabama, renowned for its tech-free philosophy to inspire campers to become more social and partake in healthy activities.
There is a ton of space to play, so young explorers can receive a wonderful outdoor education while gaining new skills and self-confidence.
The summer camps are designed for various age groups. Young children can stay for 1-week sessions, while older teens can enroll in the 2-week counselors in training program. There is also a 2-night mini-camp for those who aren't ready for a full-week commitment. There are also day camp options.
They have some of the most welcoming counselors that the YMCA is famous for, and is an amazing option for parents looking to send their kids to a safe yet exciting camp.
