Description

Nature hikes, canoeing, frog hunts, campfires, and experiencing life in the great outdoors...these are activities that have lit up children's faces with smiles for years.

In each young person coming to Camp Shand for an outdoor experience, we see the shining promise of a brighter future.

To that end, the Y continues in its mission of instilling the core values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility through its co-ed day and residential summer camp programs to campers age 6-15 and adventure and service-based programs to teens age 13-17. Nestled on 120 acres of scenic woodland in southern Lebanon County, and just 20 miles from downtown Lancaster, Camp Shand is also available for retreats, outdoor education programs, and special events.
