Welcome to Fairview Lake YMCA Camps! The recipe for a wonderful childhood includes adventure, learning, safety, friends and fun. These are the components Fairview Lake builds upon as we design our programs. For over 100 years we have been creating memories for children and their families. Our programs are created to help children grow in their sense of belonging as they meet new people and develop life-long friendships. The community that is created at Fairview Lake is nurtured through our staff. We go to great lengths to find and train the best staff from all over the world. The majority of our staff team come from our own leadership development programs and they understand the values and impact of Fairview Lake. Physical, as well as emotional safety is emphasized in our trainings and programs. Fairview Lake is a fun place filled with friendly people. The exciting activities draw people in, but it’s the relationships that get formed here that get people to come back year after year. Our campers have been telling us that they leave here with positive memories that last a lifetime. Our rich heritage is a testament to what we have done in the past but no year is more important than this coming summer and we look forward to serving our 2016 campers.

MINISINK Coed entering grades 2-4 Est. 1928 Our Minisink program is an ideal introductory experience for the younger camper.

In addition, the Minisink program provides a balance of structured and choice activities. Each camper receives swim instruction, cabin and unit activities plus two elected periods daily. The afternoon concludes with the campers electing to participate in a recreational swim or heading to the athletic field for sports. While Minisink campers receive the individual attention they need, they also enjoy participating in all camp activities and meals with the older Laurel Ridge and Kittatinny campers. This is perfect when siblings attend camp together and also makes for a smooth transition into Laurel Ridge and Kittatinny as the campers get older. 1 WEEK JUNE 26 - JULY 2 OR JULY 17 - JULY 23 6 2 WEEKS JULY 3 - JULY 16 OR JULY 24 - AUGUST 6 COMBINE ONE AND TWO-WEEK PROGRAMS FOR A 3-WEEK STAY: JUNE 26 - JULY 16 OR JULY 17 - AUGUST 6 (No variation from session dates listed) NEW TUPELO Coed entering grades 2-10 Our newest traditional camp is just right for campers looking for a two week experience!
