About YMCA Camp Kern

At our facility, we recognize that each guest has their own unique goals for their visit, and our mission is to help them reach those goals. From helping each one to challenge themselves, to providing an environment where they can disconnect from the digital world and make new friends, we are committed to providing a memorable experience for each and every guest. We also value the importance of reconnecting with colleagues and building new relationships, and are dedicated to making sure that each visit is tailored to the individual needs of our guests.

SUMMER CAMP
Summer Camp at YMCA Camp Kern is dedicated to fun for kids and teens of all ages, it is so much more than that. With a focus on friendships, campers spend the week participating in activities they choose, with amazing counselors from all over the world. Each program is designed with specific age groups in mind, and counselors are trained to not only build campers up, but to encourage and empower them to become more, guide them through challenges and provide great role models. We believe Camp is important; that is why we are proud to offer camper scholarship opportunities to those families who may not be able to afford the summer camp experience.

DAY CAMP & SEMI-RESIDENTIAL CAMPS
Technically two programs, but these 'introduction' programs are the best option for young first-time campers. Learn about YMCA values with a specially chosen staff who works to build friendships and confidence in new campers. Day camp days are followed by overnight experiences later in the week, and every day is filled with great age-appropriate activities: Arts and Crafts, Swimming, Sports, Nature Hikes and more! These camps stick together throughout their time, so the bonds between campers and staff are built quickly and create trust that leads to increased resilience and confidence.

HORSE PROGRAMS
Whether you are an accomplished rider, or you are just interested in starting out in the Equestrian world, Ranch Camp is the place to be! Spend all week riding in various formats and programs, doing ring riding and lessons, along with trail rides all over Camp Kern’s 485 acres. Get to know your assigned horse, and learn how to ride on many others! With programs for ages 7-16 and with traditional camp activities thrown into each program, Ranch Camp is a perfect place if you are looking for something just a little different.
