About Camp Jorn YMCA

Since 1953, Camp Jorn YMCA has been a place where generations of campers have discovered who they are, made lifelong friends, and experienced the wonder of Wisconsin’s Northwoods.

From our first summer on the shores of Rest Lake to the thriving programs we offer today, Camp Jorn’s mission has always been simple — to help people grow in confidence, character, and community through outdoor adventure.

Here, every campfire sparks connection. Every activity builds courage. And every moment at camp leaves a lasting mark.

Camp Jorn is more than a summer destination — it’s a year-round community built on the YMCA’s core values of Caring, Honesty, Respect, and Responsibility.

Our programs are designed to help campers, families, and staff thrive in spirit, mind, and body. Whether they come for a week or a lifetime, everyone who experiences Camp Jorn becomes part of something bigger — a legacy of belonging that stretches back over seventy years.
