Camp Hickory

The Hanover Area YMCA is ready to redefine your summer! This summer, Camp Hickory is bringing the field trips to us! Each week, campers will enjoy special on-site experiences like visiting performers, hands-on workshops, and interactive programs, all without leaving the safety and comfort of our YMCA campuses.

From games and group challenges to creative projects and unforgettable moments, Camp Hickory is where kids laugh big, try new things, and make friendships that last long after summer ends.

Codorus Adventure Camp

Looking for something a little extra? Codorus Adventure Camp gives campers the chance to explore the great outdoors at beautiful Codorus State Park during select summer weeks. Campers will travel by YMCA bus from each branch to the park for a full day of fresh air, fun, and adventure.

Each Codorus Adventure day may include:

  • Kayaking on the lake
  • Hiking and nature trails
  • Fishing
  • Outdoor games and group challenges
  • Picnic lunch at the park (campers bring a packed lunch)

With YMCA staff leading the way, campers will enjoy a safe, structured outdoor experience while building confidence, teamwork, and a love for nature. Transportation, supervision, and activities are all included.

Codorus Adventure Camp is offered during select weeks and has limited availability.
