they can achieve. In our single-gender camps, kids unplug so they can connect with themselves and each other. In everything we do, we empower kids with the confidence and character needed to reach their full potential.
What sets us apart is topnotch staff, rich traditions, a 'friendly to all' community, single-gender camps, a tech-free environment, and YMCA character development.
Campers love Takodah's choice-based, progressive program. Campers get to choose their own classes and activities, all of which help them build skills, confidence, and self-respect. They also have new options every summer, giving them a chance to build on past successes while exploring new interests.
We're delighted that you're considering Takodah. We know summer camp is a huge decision, and we're here to help you every step of the way. Contact us at 603-352-0447 or info@takodahymca.org. We'll help you decide if Takodah is right for your child, and we'll even connect you with a current camp family who'll share their experiences with you.
