6 Day Overnight Camp

(Ages 8-14)

Our classic overnight camp experience for campers who are ready to take on a week away from home, or who are coming back for more! Every 6-Day camper gets to enjoy a Wednesday campout under the stars in addition to the other camp activities. 

A Lifechanging Experience

Campers ages 8-14 learn to be proud to be themselves and to connect with the natural world in our six-day, five-night resident camp program. They get the full camp experience and have the opportunity to all the Program Choice Areas camp has to offer as they work their way toward our leadership and tripping programs. A six-day camper has the opportunity to develop teamwork, critical thinking, and empathy skills while participating in their program choice activities, cabin activities, cabin times, and an overnight camping excursion. Campers in this program are able to build unique and close bonds with their cabin mates and counselors, in just one week they will build relationships that will provide them with supportive connections for years to come. We look forward to serving your child this summer, and hopefully for years to come, at Camp U-Nah-Li-Ya.

Tiered Price Per Week

We understand that our camp families have differing abilities to pay, so we offer a tiered pricing system to better accommodate all financial situations. Your choice does not influence the quality of the camp experience that your child will receive.

  • Tier A: $920
  • Tier B: $840
  • Tier C: $765

What is Tiered Pricing?

This pricing option is available to anyone. We offer three pricing levels to better accommodate all financial needs. Please consider selecting the highest tier that your family can afford in order to allow YMCA Camp U-Nah-Li-Ya to continue to ensure the quality of every camper’s experience. The price you select does not impact your camper’s experience in any way.

  • Tier A: Most accurately reflects the true and actual cost of camp.
  • Tier B: A partially subsidized rate, but more closely reflects the actual cost of camp.
  • Tier C: Our historically standard rate which does not represent the true cost of camp. This rate is subsidized by the YMCA through fundraising, special events, and contributions.
