The YMCA Camp Weona Experience has been building friendships and making memories for over 114 years. YMCA Camp Weona Campers learn new skills and grow as individuals in a beautiful natural environment and offers a unique experience for a summer in beautiful rural Western New York – just 45 minutes from Buffalo. YMCA Camp Weona has embraced the YMCA core values of Honesty, Caring, Respect and Responsibility. Campers learn and live the values in everything they do at camp.

There are a wide range of programs offered at YMCA Camp Weona. Whether a camper wants to ride a horse on one of our wooded trails or learn to canoe across our private 12 acre lake, camp out under the stars, or repel off our climbing tower – all while building self esteem and increasing friendship building skills.

YMCA Camp Weona offers the following programs for campers to enjoy in an age appropriate curriculum: archery, arts & crafts, high ropes, 40-ft. climbing-tower, climbing wall, digital photography, mountain biking, overnights, day and evening hikes, outdoor living skills, canoeing, weekly dance, swimming in the heated pool, games, basketball, field games, campfire, theme based meals; morning watch and evening reflections. We also offer the YMCA Rag character development program. Please note: that activities vary depending on camper age, weather and safety considerations. 

YMCA Camp Weona is a traditional YMCA residential camping program serving children age 7 to 16 years old with exciting summer camp options for one, two or more week stays.

Celebrating our 114th anniversary and built on the Christian heritage of the YMCA, we value honesty, caring, respect, and responsibility.
