Trail Blazers Adventure Camps

We believe all kids deserve the chance to experience the life-changing power of camp. The Trail Blazers Adventure Camp inspires kids with countless opportunities to laugh, lead and make lasting friendships. Runners learn how to work as a team and overcome obstacles.

We will meet at Squalicum Park Playground each morning before taking the YMCA van to Coach Jen's favorite places. Each camp is five hours long so there will be plenty of time for exploring these special places. Only 12 spots available!
