As November brings us Thanksgiving, YMCA Camp Wapsie would like to thank everyone who has been a part of camp throughout its 100 years! We could not have done it without all the campers and staff, but especially the volunteers who continue to work hard to make camp better year after year. We serve over 4,000 campers each year through year-round retreats, specialty and family programs. We are excited to share all of the wonderful additions with incoming campers thanks to the support of our camp family and donors. Learn More & Donate
