Our Mission
The YMCA is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to put Christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body for all.
Outdoor Education
YMCA Camp Lakewood provides a natural setting for experiential outdoor education, group building, and leadership training in Southeast Missouri.
We work with teachers and group leaders to create an exciting program for many different kinds of groups. Our Outdoor Education programs are perfect for school field trips, scout troops, youth groups, church retreats, band camps, and sports camps.
We offer day trip experiences, 5-day/4-night experiences, weekend experiences, and custom-length programs.
Your group is welcome from the middle of August through the end of May. We provide lodging, all-you-can-eat meals, and YMCA staff who will make sure your experience meets your needs.
For more information about our Outdoor Education programs, to schedule a tour or presentation, or to reserve space for your group, please contact:
