I worked at Camp Jorn in the summer of 1991, and have been involved with camp ever since. Â This is a magical place in the northwoods of Wisconsin, and we need your help sending kids in need for an experience of a lifetime. Â The 2018 Strong Kids Campaign will give scholarships to children who would not have the ability to go to camp. Â
Camp Jorn YMCA has been serving youth and families since 1953! Â
Our mission is to build character, confidence and community through enriching outdoor experiences. Â
We believe that when we achieve our mission, we make a brighter future for communities:
- When a child finds that he loves being outside more than in front of a TV
- When a teen goes on a 7-day canoe trip and realizes that she can accomplish whatever she puts her mind to (like portaging a canoe!)
- When a parent has a welcoming and safe place to bring their child while they work
                âĤour community grows healthier, stronger, more productive.
We advance our cause by focusing on three priorities:
Youth Development - we give kids the opportunity to discover who they are and what they can achieve, under the guidance of caring adults who believe in their potential. Â
Healthy Living - Through positive role models, we give our kids the opportunity to be active, eat healthy and practice stress relieving techniques. Â It all adds up to greater health and well-being in spirit, mind and body.
Social Responsibility - We work to inspire a spirit of service in each member of our Camp Jorn Family. We help each child learn and love what we can achieve by giving back together.
Together we can build a better us!
Your donation will support countless youth with stories like these:Â
- A first-time resident camper, Tommy, sent a thank you note to us. Â He loved his time at Camp Jorn and was especially happy that at camp â he learned to swim â an opportunity he didnât have at home!Â
- Bodie, a young man who has been a part of our child care program and day camp program for the last 6 years â and whose parents report, not once in those 6 years has Bodie wanted to leave Camp Jorn at the end of the day! Â
Please give generously to the 2019 Annual Campaign for Camp Jorn YMCA!
Your investment in us, allows our life changing work with youth and families to continue!
