Camp Collins, YMCA summer camp in Gresham, Oregon
Camp Collins is a residential summer camp near the Sandy River in Colorado that offers swimming, horseback riding, archery, and various outdoor activities. The facility serves children ages 4 through 18 with programming designed to build skills and confidence.
The YMCA founded Camp Collins to create a place where children could develop leadership abilities and build a connection with nature through organized summer programs. Over time, the camp expanded its offerings and became a regular destination for families seeking outdoor experiences.
Campers gather around evening fires to sing together and build friendships across different grades, creating bonds that often last beyond the summer.
Week-long overnight sessions run from Sunday afternoon through Friday afternoon with registration open for children across all ages. It helps to prepare for extended time outdoors and bring appropriate clothing for varied weather conditions.
The camp runs specialized basketball programs where participants improve their skills while playing against peers at similar ability levels. This allows young players to develop their game in a supportive environment alongside matched competition.
