The Granite YMCA Overnight Camps

Your Greatest Adventure Awaits

Discover a summer of fun at The Granite YMCA’s Overnight Camps! For over 100 years, YMCA Camp Foss (traditionally a girl’s camp) and YMCA Camp Mi-Te-Na (traditionally a boy’s camp) have celebrated every campfire, lake swim, and ropes course challenge – providing the perfect summer escape for youth ages 7 – 15. With one- and two-week options to choose from throughout the summer, campers experience the right combination of adventure and peace, the joy of embracing the simple pleasures of nature while meeting new friends and reconnecting with old, and discovering that home away from home where they can be themselves and experience the summer of a lifetime. We recognize that not all camper’s gender identities fall within the binary, and we happily welcome your child at the camp that would make them most comfortable.

Overnight Camp registration for summer 2025 is currently open to new and returning campers. Don’t let summer pass by—sign up today and let the adventure begin at The Granite YMCA!
