Imagine spending your afternoons hiking, canoeing, enjoying the outdoors, playing games, creating art projects, and much more.  Join us everyday after school at YMCA Camp Thunderbird.  Our innovative philosophy works to instill campers with a nurturing respect for all living things.  Dedicated, trained staff work to enrich personal confidence as well as an understanding and appreciation for the world around them.  While no one can replace the care and love of parental support for today's youth, YMCA Camp Thunderbird provides a safe and caring environment where children can grow and develop while learning, playing, and interacting with peers.
