YMCA CAMP MENOGYN
What we're all about...
Since 1922, YMCA Camp Menogyn has been a single purpose camp for youth ages 12 to 18 'providing transformation experiences in a wilderness settingî. Menogyn (to grow fully in Ojibwe) is located on just the edge of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area of Northern Minnesota. Group size is under 7 campers. In summer, wilderness canoeing, backpacking and rock climbing trips with an emphasis on personal growth, quality and relationships are all we do. Our values are honesty, respect, caring and responsibility. Fall retreats and winter wilderness dogsledding, skiing and snow shoeing retreats are available.
