Camp Michikamau, Camp Oratam and Camp Kahagon Nestled in the beautiful woods of Harriman State Park along the shores of Kanawauke Lake, our camps are the place to be for summer camps, family retreats and outdoor education. We offer camp programs to children ages 5-16 for day camp and 8-17 for resident camp. Our campers’ days are filled with playing, socializing, exploring, and experimenting in the company of friends and counselors. All of our camps, nestled in Harriman State Park along Lake Kanawauke, provide a beautiful natural setting for our traditional summer camps. The camps are 45 minutes from Hackensack and campers are bused to camp from the YMCA. At camp, campers have the opportunity to acquire and practice valuable skills including problem-solving, teamwork, and making healthy choices. Each fun-filled day, campers participate in arts & crafts, sports & games, nature activities, boating, and swimming. Color War and other camp-wide special activities occur throughout the summer. Our YMCA camp staff is dedicated to providing your child with an exceptional camp experience. Staff participate in pre-season training to further develop their skills to create an environment where our campers feel accepted and encouraged.
