Building friendships, one LEGO at a time!

LEGO class at Camp Woodstock is all about creativity, imagination, teamwork, and fun! Campers get to build, create, and bring their ideas to life while following fun daily or weekly themes. It's just one of the many activities campers can choose from at Woodstock, where they have the freedom to explore their interests, try new things, make friends, and create memories along the way.

At Woodstock, the possibilities are endless! Woodstock, "The Friendship Camp" since 1922.

A New Chapter at the Council Ring! Part of this project was unveiled at the 100th Celebration now completed.

The heart of Camp Woodstock has a new look, but the meaning behind our opening and closing campfires burns brighter than ever!

Our updated Council Ring features a larger stone patio stage and two fire pits, each representing the light that lives inside every Woodstock camper.

At Opening Campfire, we light just one fire pit. As the week unfolds, friendships grow, confidence builds, and each camper discovers a little more of their own light.

Then, at Closing Campfire, we light both fire pits a symbol of the growth, memories, and connections each Woodstock camper carries with them as they leave camp.

The light of Woodstock isn't just around the campfire. It's inside every one of us.

Here's to new traditions, unforgettable memories, and the light that keeps Woodstock shining all year long!

Once a Woodstocker, always a Woodstocker!

Black Pond is surrounded by beauty all year long, but fall brings a special kind of magic to Camp Woodstock. The vibrant reds, oranges, and golds of the autumn leaves reflect across the clear waters of the pond, creating a breathtaking view that never gets old.

Even when camp is quiet, the beauty of Woodstock reminds us why this place is so special.

The lake is still. The cabins are empty. The Lakeside Dining Lodge is quiet. The trails are waiting.

It’s hard to believe we have 8 more months until Camp Woodstock comes alive again! Until then, we’ll be counting the days, remembering the laughter, cheers, friendships, and adventures that make summer at Woodstock so special.

We can’t wait to welcome our Woodstockers back home! Registration is OPEN!

The lake, the laughter, the friendships, the traditions, the adventures—and all the little moments that make Camp Woodstock feel like home.

From tie-dye and hiking through the woods to unforgettable nights under the stars and evenings by the lake, this summer gave us memories that will last a lifetime.

As we look back on another incredible summer, we’re already counting down the days until we can welcome our Woodstockers back.

The lake will be waiting. The cabins will be waiting. The adventures will be waiting. And so will we!

Until then, keep the Woodstock spirit alive.

We can’t wait to see you next summer!

Today, we pause to remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and to honor the courage of the first responders, service members, and everyday people who stepped forward to help others.
We also remember the spirit of unity and compassion that emerged in the days that followed, neighbors supporting neighbors and communities coming together in the face of unimaginable loss.
At the YMCA, we believe in the strength of community and in caring for one another, today and every day.
We remember. We honor.

There’s something magical about nighttime at Camp Woodstock.

When the sun goes down and the waterfront gets quiet, the sky comes alive. From the docks of Black Pond, campers can look up and see thousands of stars stretching across the night sky a view that’s hard to find anywhere else.

It’s the kind of moment that makes you pause, take a deep breath, and simply look up. No screens. No distractions. Just the lake, the stars, and the sounds of camp at night.

Some of the best Woodstock memories happen after the sun goes down.

The Woodstock Spirit doesn’t stop at the shores of Black Pond it travels wherever Woodstocker hearts take it.

This video captures Woodstockers sharing that spirit in the Dominican Republic, working alongside the YMCA Alumni group to help build homes and make a difference in the lives of others.

Each year, Camp Woodstock raises money to provide scholarships for our Summer Senior Counselors to travel to the Dominican Republic YMCA and volunteer their time helping others. It’s an incredible opportunity for our young leaders to put the values they’ve learned at Woodstock caring, respect, responsibility, and service into action.

We are proud to see the Woodstock Spirit continue to spread around the world, one helping hand at a time.

Once a Woodstocker, always a Woodstocker.
