YMCA CAMP SLOPER OUTDOOR CENTER

NEW FOR DAY CAMP IN 2026

EXTENDED CARE UPGRADES: We are offering new Morning Care and After Care hourly options to fit the needs of our families. With the new changes, families can pick and choose when to drop off and pick up their camper(s) and pay for only what they need.

Morning Care Drop Off Options - 7:00am or 8:00am

After Care Pick Up Options - 4:00pm or 5:00pm or 6:00pm

ADDITIONAL CAMP DAYS: Some of our campers are getting out of school a little early this year...so our only solution is to offer more camp days! We are offering an additional 2 days (due to snow days) on June 11th & June 12th. Anyone can sign up for these days through our normal registration process.

NEW FACILITY UPGRADES: Each year, we try to grow and expand our facilities and offerings to match the high quality of programming we have. This year is extra special with multiple new additions:

New Health Center - With the help from generous donors, volunteers, and skilled help, we converted our old camp office into a new health center specific building. Inside, you will find more room, supplies, treatment tables, and staff to assist with any campers needs. In addition, a dedicated space inside this area will be used as a "sensory room" to be utilized by individuals who could use a quieter space to self regulate. As always, a Registered Nurse is onsite during normal day camp hours.

New Camp Office - Converted the old and built brand new! Again, with the help of many gracious donors and a federal grant, we were able to expand our camp administrative building, a much needed upgrade to properly service thousands of campers every summer. Inside you'll find a modern facelift with touches of camp all around. 

New Zipline Course - In honor of beloved camper who recently passed, a generous donation was made to build a new Zipline Course (a passion of the camper). This new Zipline course will consist of three, connected, self-guided ziplines stretching over 400ft. This activity will be operated during the summer by Sloper Staff for day camp, birthday parties, and rentals.

Wanderers Playground Upgrade - Our Pre-K campers have been missing a key element to their play area since the creation of their obstacle course and swings...slides! This year, we will be building and installing age appropriate playground slides next to our Big Red Barn for our Wanderer Campers to enjoy all summer!

2026 is shaping up to be a 'fun-tastic' summer at YMCA Camp Sloper! Check back in soon...more new things could be on the horizon!
