The summer of 2010 marks the 46th straight year that the Meeting Waters YMCA has been providing fun and educational programs for the children of the CT River Valley. Over those years nearly 10,000 children have participated in a MWYMCA summer camp program. Lewis Day Camp is located at the "meeting waters" of the Black and Connecticut Rivers on Route 5 in Springfield, VT. In addition to providing fun, educational programming and caring supervision, we provide bus transportation from Bellows Falls, Brattleboro, Charlestown, Chester, Putney, Saxtons River, Springfield,  Walpole and Westminster.

Our 52 acre camp, nestled at the confluence of the Black and Connecticut Rivers, is located on

Route 5 in Springfield, VT, conveniently close to exit 7 of I-91. The camp is bordered on two sides

by the Springfield Town Forest, creating a unique, natural setting for our programs.
