YMCA Camp Jackson
Camp Groups
A tradition since 1916, YMCA Camp Jackson provides opportunities for people of all ages to experience the great outdoors, learn new skills, make friends and grow spiritually, mentally and physically. Camp Jackson has served thousands annually through youth summer camps, weekend retreats, outdoor education, leadership camps, and team building camps.
Lessons & Activities
Camp Jackson has been working with school groups for many years and has developed a broad curriculum. We typically run one to four day programs for school groups. Our school groups normally combine a mixture of our lessons, teambuilding and other activities. All of our lessons are based in the great outdoors. Learning is achieved through hands on activities, educational games and unique experiences.
Teambuilding & Leadership
