Welcome to Overnight Camp
OVER 80 YEARS OF UNFORGETTABLE ADVENTURES
Nearly two miles of shoreline on Lake Wylie provides an amazing backdrop for life-changing experiences at YMCA Camp Thunderbird. Just 30 minutes from Charlotte, our ultimate water playground has welcomed campers for over 80 years and has helped kids cultivate individual talents and skills like independence, self-discipline and empathy.
When someone comes to YMCA Camp Thunderbird, they can expect unforgettable adventures, a safe and nurturing environment and a place to be their best self. Our campers develop lifelong friendships by embracing authenticity and celebrating their differences. While many of our visitors join us as guests, they leave as family
We know going to overnight camp can be an exciting, but curious time. Please feel free to reach out to us at sales@ymcacampthunderbird.com with questions or if you would like more information on our program.
