YMCA Summer Camps provide opportunities for teens, too. From exciting Teen Camp adventures to leadership opportunities through counselor-in-training programs, to opportunities to lead campers at Camp Carter, teens can find a great way to spend their summers in YMCA camps.
Teen Leadership Camp –TLC:
TLC is a camp for teens where
they engage in a variety of activities that build their leadership skills. During the week teen campers participate in
team-building activities and gain an understanding of behavior and risk
management, supervision, water safety, and project planning. Working
with trained YMCA staff, teens learn effective methods for
interacting with
younger children. Each week has a unique focus and includes
fun field trips, swim days, and other
teen-chosen activities.
