At Camp Linwood MacDonald YMCA, we create a place where campers can step away from screens, explore the outdoors, and discover who they are in a safe, supportive environment. Nestled in the natural beauty of New Jersey, our overnight camp experience is built on YMCA values—caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility. From the moment kids arrive, they’re welcomed into a supportive and energetic environment where every day brings something new—whether it’s swimming, hiking, arts and crafts, or team games. Camp is a place where kids can step outside their usual routine, try new activities, and build confidence in a safe and encouraging setting.
Experience a summer that matters. At Camp Linwood MacDonald YMCA, campers spend their days exploring over 200 acres of pristine forests, ponds, and fields—engaging in activities that build confidence, foster friendships, and deepen appreciation for the outdoors.
Our overnight camp offers a wide range of traditional and unique activities that inspire curiosity and personal growth, from swimming and hiking to arts, nature study, and team challenges.
We are accredited by the American Camp Association (ACA)—the only nationwide accrediting body for organized camps. This means we’ve voluntarily undergone a rigorous peer-review process and meet nationally recognized standards in health, safety, staffing, and program quality that go beyond basic requirements.
At Camp Linwood MacDonald YMCA, every camper is welcomed into a supportive community where they can grow, explore, and thrive.
