Session 8 - Traditional Explorers
Description
Entering grades?5-8 in the fall of 2025.

Explorers focus on teamwork and skill building around camp. Explorers participate in advanced rope activities (generally our 1000 foot-long zipline) and repeat some of their favorite games and activities. Explorers spend one night camping off site. Campers live in cabins based on gender identity or the cabin in which they are most comfortable. Campers are placed in cabins of campers within the same program and similar age or developmental stage.

We are committed to making YMCA Camping and Outdoor Leadership programs more accessible for everyone. We have lowered our pricing options and developed a voluntary sliding fee schedule. Simply select the price most appropriate for your family. Your selections are completely confidential and do not impact the quality of your camper’s experience.

Price A reflects the full price of sending a camper to the program selected. This level represents the full price of camp operations, including support for long-term maintenance, repairs, and facility enhancements.

Price B is partially sponsored by funds generously contributed by our supporters to help families unable to afford the full price of the program.

Price C is the lowest price, funded by generous contributions donated by our supporters to the greatest extent possible.

Our goal is to remove barriers that prevent anyone from participating in our programs, including financial barriers. If our lowest prices still create a financial barrier that prevents you from participating in our programs, we invite you to fill out a Financial Assistance Application. Once we have reviewed and approved your application, you will receive an email confirming the percentage you have been awarded. The percentage awarded will automatically be applied to your account and be reflected in your final balance. A $50 deposit will still be required to confirm your reservation.
