YMCA Camp Lakewood is a branch of the YMCA of Greater St. Louis and is accredited by the Amercian Camping Association. It is a co-ed summer residential camp for ages 6-17, located 75 miles south of St. Louis between Potosi and Steelville, MO. Set amidst 5,000 beautiful woodland acres with a private 360-acre lake, Camp Lakewood is a true escape. Your child will forget all about television, video games, and mp3 players while discovering the ultimate childhood experience, all within a safe and trusted environment.
Programs at Camp Lakewood are based on the YMCA's five core values: Caring, Honesty, Respect, Responsibility, and Faith. We believe in making your camper stronger in spirit, mind and body! At Camp Lakewood, your camper can attend our Traditional Summer Camp Program, participate in the Ranger Program, work on leadership skills in our Leaders In Training Program (LIT), or focus on a special elective of our regular camp program like Horsemanship. Campers ages six to eight can experience a taste of the summer camp program through Mini-Camp. We also have Tween Camp for campers ages 9-10 or Pre-Teen Camp for ages 11-12.
We welcome children of all nationalities and denominations and pride ourselves on the cultural diversity of our campers and counselors.
See for yourself why you should send your child(ren) to Camp Lakewood this summer!
