YMCA Camp Coniston is a place where kids try things for the first time. Perhaps it is archery. Perhaps it is swimming. Perhaps it is being away from home. Learning to solve problems independently is the first step for your child to learn resilience and self-sufficiency that will help your child successfully navigate the growing pains of adolescence.

Coniston campers return year after year. This is because self growth doesn’t end with trying new activities. Camp is a place to develop new friendships, safely try on new personalities, perhaps reinvent yourself, and maybe even have your first job.
