We’re excited! This is our
61st year of providing safe,
fun, and exciting northwoods
experiences that are steeped
in tradition. Our mantra It’s all
about the kids! will focus our
attention on our mission and
the tradition of YMCA resident camping. Every moment
with kids is an opportunity
to make the world a better
place.
Camp Jorn YMCA!
We develop character
by building commitment
and understanding to the
universal values of Caring,
Respect, Honesty,
Responsibility and
Personal Growth. This
is not hard work when
you have a great staff, wonderful programs and amazing facilities… and we do! Take notice of all
the pictures of smiling kids in this brochure – they are making friends, learning new skills, growing
in self-confidence and independence. Picture your kids having these experiences this summer. Be
assured we challenge kids to reach new heights and that safety is our highest priority. To ensure
you are getting the best for your children – we maintain a 3:1 camper to staff ratio, progressive
programing and modern, clean facilities with great food.
So much has changed and so much has remained the same… canoe trips, archery classes, favorite
horses, the Friendship Fire, singing, making new friends… Camp Jorn YMCA delivers a foundational
life changing experience that provides a lifetime of memories and friends. We anxiously await your
visit. Look for more information about Camp Jorn YMCA on our website: www.campjornymca.org.
Our mission is for all
who engage in
Camp Jorn YMCA
experiences to recognize
and develop value in
themselves and in the
world around them.

welcome!
We honor the tradition of YMCA resident camping.
We seek to expand our offerings to meet the
interests of youth with specialty activities,
wilderness trips, progressive programming, and
teen /leadership opportunities.
“Excellent summer experience for my son! Thanks!”
Resident Camp
Camp Jorn provides high-quality one and two week co-ed sessions
for campers ages 8-15. Three-week sessions are for senior campers
ages 15-16, wishing to experience our leadership development
programs: Leader-in-Training (LIT) and Counselor-in-Training (CIT).
Campers are placed into cabins, platform tents, or yurts according
to age and gender. Each group, of 6 – 10, is assigned a Counselor
and Junior Counselor.
During the morning hours, campers participate in three
instructional classes, while afternoons are usually reserved for
cabin activities. TEVA campers (see information on TEVA program)
have more input into the structure of their day, but do participate
in many traditional camp activities.
Evening Activities are one of the highlights of the day. The entire
camp comes together for large-group games and activities such as
skit night, campfires, Wells Fargo, sock hop or the Friendship Fire.
Because camping trips have unparalleled educational and
developmental benefits, we include an overnight camping trip for
all campers 10 and up. Campers will learn wilderness trip skills, and
will take advantage of CJ’s incredible location in the heart of the
Northwoods by canoeing or hiking to a camping spot with their
cabin group. These trips impact some class time; however, we truly
believe we can make the greatest impact on campers’ lives with
this commitment.
One- and two-week sessions begin
on Sundays and end on Saturdays
(please see schedule for details).
Campers wishing to stay over from
one-week Sessions 1 to 2, or 5 to
6, or 6 to 7, may take advantage
of our Saturday night holdover.
These campers will do laundry and,
weather permitting, participate in an
overnight camping trip on or near
camp.

TEVA is an exciting way for teen campers to
challenge themselves in their CJ experience.
TEVA campers live in Camp Jorn’s Yurt Village.
The location is set slightly apart from the
main camp area, offering living spaces and a
meeting space.
• Tea

TEVA
They spend time at the beginning of their
session getting to know one another through
group initiatives and low ropes course activities,
and will plan their two week session together.
This can include traditional camp program areas, as well as special
activities such as a wilderness trip, visit to a Native American powwow, trail bike ride, or service activity for Camp or the community.
The possibilities are endless! TEVA staff will be counselors who are
dedicated to providing the leadership and guidance necessary for this
age group, in a caring and fun environment.
What’s a Yurt?
A yurt is a self-supporting,
round, domed shelter used by
nomadic tribes across Central
Asia. The word “yurt” is used
as a synonym for “homeland”
in the modern Turkish
language.
Traditional yurts are
constructed of a circular
wooden frame with a felt
cover. Our yurts have a doorframe, lattice wall-sections,
roof poles and a crown.
You may think “tent” when
you see a yurt. However, yurts
are much stronger due to the
circular structure combined
with a wood frame, and
durable fabric cover.

LITs and CITs spend time in learning sessions covering camper behavior,
teaching skills, conflict resolution, and more. LITs and CITs also spend time
in intense work in specific program areas with cabin groups, participate
in a service learning experience, and sometimes travel to other camps to
observe their programs.
They will also participate in an extensive wilderness trip, backpacking
(Pathfinder) or canoeing (Voyageur), depending upon the session. These
trips are 4 – 6 days for LITs, and 5 – 7 days for CITs. They are expected to
be well-prepared for their wilderness trip! Please read Leadership Program
information for details in the Camper Handbook on LIT and CIT trips.
LIT participants are 15 years old or have completed their freshman year of
high school. LITs can choose either of the 3–week sessions offered.
CIT participants are 16 years old, or have completed their sophomore year
of high school, AND must be invited by Camp Jorn
to participate in the CIT program. CITs will come
to camp for either 3-week session offered. As
part of the application process, selected campers
will receive a letter of invitation to apply
for the CIT program
from Camp Jorn.
Interested campers
will then complete
an application
and secure written
references from
non-family members.
The application and
references are required
for participation in the
CIT program.

the necessary skills and maturity to become effective leaders. Through
the program, teens focus on service learning, relationship-building, and
adventure and challenge. Camp Jorn continues to provide a quality

Camp Jorn YMCA’s beautiful setting

all who visit to come away refreshed
and renewed.

our $25.00 Early Bird Discount (per camper, per session). Active YMCA
members receive an additional $20 per camper, per session discount
(verification required). Refer-a-Friend and receive a $50.00 discount for

to discover the adventure of the Northwoods, through the spirit and
programs of Camp Jorn. This is a week of fun and quality family time.
Includes individual family cabins, complete food service and a huge

How do campers get to camp? We charter motor coach buses that
stop at locations in Illinois and Wisconsin. See “Transportation To and From
Camp” on the Registration Form for details. Parents are also welcome to
drop off and pick up their camper(s) at camp.
Why 2 prices? We have realized families have differing abilities
to pay for summer camp. In order to reach more children, we have
instituted a voluntary 2-tier pricing program. This pricing program
is voluntary and in no way influences the experience children
receive at Camp Jorn YMCA. Because of those volunteering to
pay Rate A, we have been able to provide new equipment and
programs that allow us to keep up with our goals of providing
fun, quality, progressive programs. It also allows us the ability to
maintain excellent camper to staff ratios even in a challenging
economy. Thanks for considering this avenue of support.

Applying for Financial Assistance
A camp experience provides unparalleled opportunities for positive youth development and it is our goal to make our programs
available to all regardless of a family’s ability to pay the full fee. We fully understand that each of us needs a helping hand from
time to time. We have a Scholarship Program in place to meet this need. We want to support those engaged in improving and
enriching the lives of their children.
To apply for a camp scholarship, complete the Camper Registration Form, and the Camper Scholarship Application. The Camper
Scholarship Application form is available for download from our website. Send the completed forms and deposit ($50 per camper
per 1 week session or $100 per Leadership Development Program) to the camp office. Upon receipt of both forms, and deposit,
your application will be reviewed and you will be notified, within two weeks, of your allocation via phone or email.

It houses the craft center, group program
area, staff offices, rest rooms and day

The dining hall comfortably serves 160
campers. Camp Cook Penny has been
with Camp Jorn for 15 yummy years.
She’s well known for her delicious homemade cinnamon rolls and fresh baked
bread. Our session menu is nutritionally
balanced and designed to appeal to
most appetites. Family style meals are
served three times a day. Along with
meal entrées, we have a full cereal and
fruit bar at breakfast, and a full salad bar

offers a quiet and comfortable
environment. Soon after arriving at
camp the campers meet with the Health
Director who monitors the wellness
of the camp community. The Health
Director lives on-site and stores and
distributes all medications.
