Camp Description:
YMCA Camp Willson, located in Logan County, was established in 1918, and is owned and operated by the YMCA of Central Ohio, which celebrated its 150th Anniversary in 2005. Our 455 acre year-round facility is accredited by the American Camp Association and operates as a summer youth camp for boys and girls ages 7 - 16, a full-service outdoor education program for schools, and a weekend conference center for church, youth, scouting retreats and many other groups.For more than 80 years, children have come to Willson Outdoor Center to swim, boat, sleep under the stars, fish, ride horses, experience nature and enjoy the outdoors. These children have left with much more... independence, confidence, great memories and lasting friendships. Most importantly, they left camp feeling good about themselves. This same spirit and tradition still thrives at Willson. We stress the values that you embrace at home: honesty, caring, respect and responsibility. These values extend into all areas of your child's life, giving them increased confidence and maturity. Last summer, more than 1,000 children enjoyed the Willson experience and our commitment to excellence continues with challenging, exciting and adventure-oriented activities.
