How you help At camp, we rely on hundreds of volunteers to make our programs run smoothly.
About us Our popular summer and weekend programs help people grow in spirit, mind, body, and friendship! Since 1928 the YMCA has been building into kids here at camp, and we are looking forward to helping your child make new friends, try new things, and let their light shine here this summer. More than 80-percent of our staff were campers at Camp Ernst. The summer staff is recruited: from past campers and staff, staff contacts, from area and national colleges and high schools, and international counselor programs.
