Camp should be fun and engaging!

OTHER CAMP INFO: iSG Camps is a division of the International Sporting Group based in Columbus, Ohio. The management of iSG Camps has been operating youth sports camps for over 19 years with a high rate of customer satisfaction. Camps are well organized and designed so that the designated professional athlete can easily come in and interact with youth participants.

We recognize the benefits of sports participation for youth. We work with athletes of all levels. Our priority is to get children involved in physical activity and to help alleviate the ‘couch potato’ mentality that many young people are faced with. For more athletic students, our goal is to help elevate them to the next level. Being involved in our program gives children a sense of belonging, achievement and success that they can then take with them and use in their everyday lives.

CAMP SCHOLARSHIPS OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE: The YMCA realizes that families have differing abilities to pay and has introduced a voluntary tiered pricing program to enable all families the opportunity for a quality camp experience for their children. This program is voluntary, requires no paperwork, and in no way influences the experience your child receives. Simply choose the rate that is appropriate for your family.

TIER A is based on the full cost of a child participating in camp programs. This rate reflects the actual cost of sending a camper to camp.

TIER B is a partially subsidized rate that will help families that cannot afford the full cost of the camp program.

FAMILY CAMP SESSION(S): Try It Out Camp-Out is held June 8-9, 4 pm-8 am followed by our public Annual Open House. This is the perfect opportunity for first-time campers who could benefit from a practice night at camp with their families. Bring your own tent and pitch in the field or claim a cabin! (Cabins sleep 12). Dinner and breakfast are included. Go online for more information.
