You can Be the Reason Y all youth, regardless of income or background, have the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive at Widji.

YMCA Camp Widjiwagan is committed to developing individuals, our community and our environment through unique outdoor experiences. Each year, our supporters invest in that cause. In 2011, we are relying on your contribution to continue our important work.

Since 1929, Widjiwagan has provided wilderness experiences for youth. Widji provides an opportunity for youth to build life-long friendships, increase self-confidence and gain physical strength by getting off the couch and into the wilderness. Students who come to camp in the winter, spring and fall months experience the outdoors as their classroom. They learn about eco-systems, the night sky and have the chance to jump into the frozen lake after a sauna.

A young person who is a part of Widji, no matter what time of year, comes away with an increase in respect for self, the community and the environment—the foundation of all our programs.

Please join us in supporting Camp Widjiwagan. Your investment in our annual Y Partners campaign will make a difference at camp today.

    The best way to create environmental advocates is to start young-- Widji has mastered this, and so much more! Thank you!

    Spending a month canoeing this past summer literaly changed my daughters life. She came home deciding she wanted to simplify her life and have more moments to enjoy the things around her. This trip solidified her love of the outdoors. Thank you Widji!!

    I just came back from a trip to the BWCA, and many of the skills and attitudes I operate with in the Boundary Waters I can trace back to my Widji trips over 20 years ago. I want Widji to be able to continue to foster a love and respect for nature in youth.

    Minnesotans are such good citizens and I love the karma of having all of us thinking and doing charitably on one day. So many great organizations to support--as for me I choose YMCA Camp Widjiwagan.
