At the Shasta Family YMCA Camp McCumber Resident Camp youth have the opportunity to explore nature, discover their talents, try new interests, gain independence, and make lasting friendships and memories. Campers choose and participate in daily activities, including canoeing, fishing, archery, arts & crafts, hiking, campfires, and sports activities. They learn respect for their fellow campers, for their own abilities, and for the outdoors. Camp is about positive experiences and personal growth.
Special to YMCA camps is the Ragger Program - in which campers set individual goals for themselves focused on developing stronger body, mind, and spirit. Rags exist as outward symbols of inward goals.
We want every youth to be able to experience the unique experience of Camp McCumber. Although Camp McCumber rental fees continue to rise, which impact our program costs and fees, the Y does not want to turn away any child due to inability to pay. Through the Y's Financial Assistance Program, funds are available to help offset the cost of camp program fees. If your family needs help with the cost of Camp McCumber, please contact us.
