Adventure Friendship Discovery Fun Camp Lakeside

OVERNIGHT CAMP

Overnight Camp at Camp Lakeside runs Sunday through Friday. At Camp Lakeside we teach many skills that help each camper to develop character traits and friendships that last a lifetime. In a supportive community of peers and dedicated leaders, each camper has the opportunity to enjoy new experiences and relish in the classic traditions of summer camp. Campers experience team building through team games, learn about and enjoy outdoor skills, and build character values! At Camp Lakeside we believe that every day is an adventure!

DAY CAMP

The Family YMCA of Greater Augusta offers day camp programs across the CSRA at nine locations. One-week sessions are May through August. Our summer camps offer unforgettable experiences for your child. From arts and crafts, to swimming, to sports, there is something fun for all. Through our camps we offer a Summer Enrichment Program which focuses on S.T.E.A.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics) activities for campers. Your child will have a memorable summer and make lifelong friendships!

ADVENTURER BASE CAMP

Base Camp is a 3-day and 2-night overnight experience at Camp Lakeside.
