Kimball Camp Hillsdale County Young Mens Christian Association

Health and well-being for all - as a way to promote the idea of healthy body, mind, and spirit we offer the use of the kimball camp facilities for all area schools, civic groups, churches, and family reunions as a healthy, fun environment that is safe and totally drug and alcohol free. The camp offers team building activities and climbing activities that challange participants to conquer fears and build self-confidence. A variety of community agencies utilize the ymca facilities at a reduced rate.

School camping programs - kimball camp offers programs based on educational science curriculum that allows children to bring their classroom knowledge to a hands-on environment. The programs teach respect of nature, self, and others. The classes offer learning in engineering, science, chemistry, forest study, and animal habitats. The children also experience survival challenges and learn to overcome fears and face obstacles with a positive attitude by learning to work together as teams. They journal their accomplishments and discuss them when they return to the classroom, reinforcing the lessons that were learned. Challenge activities are also included in the experience.
