Your summer adventure begins at Long Lake Camp in New York's Great Adirondack Park. Every day is thrilling as you embark on your unique journey. Campers enjoy all the positive aspects of camp life while living in modern cabins, having great fun and learning skills that will last a lifetime. At Long Lake Adventure Camp our campers have the unique opportunity to create their own schedule from a wide variety of options for each of our seven periods. We go on many exciting trips exploring the Adirondack high peaks, unspoiled rivers, lush forests plus sea plane rides and theme parks with roller coasters and giant water slides! Everyday you can go horseback riding, tubing, ATVing, play paintball, all land and water sports, you can start a rock band or get creative in our fine arts building. Since 1969 our family has provided the most wonderful experiences in summer fun. Campers immediately feel at home enabling them to thrive and grow.

Physical Education is an integral part of a youngster's development. At the Sports Academy, a young child can have a first-hand experience by being introduced to many different sports activities on a daily basis. Various motor skills and patterns of movement developed at an early age will help to increase coordination and athletic ability as your child grows and matures. We believe and have first hand knowledge and experience that children can be taught the meaning of teamwork, cooperation, and sharing through small group instruction. With our structured environment, each child can improve his skills while developing a positive feeling of confidence and a lifelong love of sports. In each sport area, children will find an experienced, caring, patient, and knowlegeable staff member. Our low ratio of coach to player (1:7) will ensure your child's personal attention.

"For Fun, For Friends, Forever;" this is the heart of the Onyahsa experience- for the new camper or the veteran. Since its inception well over a century ago, YMCA Camp Onyahsa has been a great place for youth and families. Then as now, it offers security, authenticity, peace, and exciting fun; as necessary today as ever. In a beautiful wooded setting, on the edge of the lake, we don't only enjoy recreation; we aim to "re-create" in the Great Outdoors.

Celebrating its 112th year in 2010, Camp Onyahsa offers an exciting, genuine, and rewarding experience for any camper. Nestled in its own wooded bay on northern Chautauqua Lake, we offer traditional camp sessions, specialty camps, academic programs, teen activities, leadership development programs, extensive waterfront classes, outdoor environmental education, and much more. Each of our weeks has a fun theme as the focus of its activities, and is implemented by caring, committed and competent staff members.

Campers live in rustic single-sex, age-graded cabins or tents under the supervision of carefully selected and trained staff members. The Camp's directors and health staff also reside on site, and provide 24 hour per day supervision, and the Camp has a staff to camper ratio of at least 1:8.

All campers participate together in our special activities, such as campfires, skits, Club Time, theme nights, Olympic games, village nights, and other all-camp programs. Meanwhile, through age-group cabin and tent living with their adult counselors, campers learn as members of small groups to share and live cooperatively. The activities and living areas are staffed with well-qualified and highly committed counselors, who share the goal of making a stay at Onyahsa a truly rewarding experience for all members of the Camp Community.

The Onyahsa mission is to foster the healthy Spiritual, Intellectual, and Physical well-being of Camp Participants from diverse backgrounds within a nurturing outdoor environment, while creating a meaningful sense of Community among them through an active learning experience.

Here we seek to encourage Spiritual growth- through a non-denominational stress on compassion, social justice, human rights, and the strengthening of faith in a loving Creator; Intellectual growth by fostering tolerance, self-awareness, and multi-cultural mutual understanding- the foundations of peace; Physical health, an appreciation for the gift of life and a responsibility to nurture it; and the creation of Community- an authentic experience of belonging created by diverse members who share traditional common values including honesty, caring, respect, and responsibility.

The Onyahsa experience is set in a beautiful, natural outdoor environment, and is fostered by committed, caring and competent staff members and volunteers. Our goal is to provide a genuine, safe, healthy, and happy camp experience for youth and families through life-enriching, "back-to-basics" organized summer and year-round programs.

Join us for this wonderful, exciting, and necessary experience. And whether it's for the first time or the hundredth, Come Home to Camp Onyahsa.

From our first trip exploring the western USA and Canada, we could never have imagined how many thousands of teens would come to share in our spirited groups and travel with us on 7 program types in 6 continents throughout 19 countries .

30 years ago, Westcoast Connection / 360° Student Travel began with a modest goal of using exciting, memorable travel to teach and inspire teenagers and to enhance their understanding of themselves along the way. Our philosophy of “EACH & EVERY” is the cornerstone of our programs; “EACH” focuses on respecting the individual, looking for what makes each student unique and avoiding a one size fits all approach while “EVERY” reminds us that no matter how incredible a site like Bryce Canyon or Machu Picchu might be, the experience would fall below expectations unless we created tightly knit groups where everybody is included in an enriching program. With amazing sights, activities, accommodations and restaurants, there's no doubt that Westcoast Connection will show you the "perfectly planned, perfectly paced" summer of a lifetime.

This summer, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute offers students the chance to take academic short courses reflecting the ground-breaking research being conducted in our state-of-the-art facilities. Enrichment Programs and Sports Camps allow today's youth, and tomorrow's leaders, to explore and begin to develop their passions and interests. Each program will be individually priced. Contact us for additional information such as full program descriptions, application/registration forms, and costs.

Children participate in activities ranging from swimming to softball, from cookouts to ceramics, from picnics by the ponds to performances on stage. We also offer supportive academic courses ranging from math to SAT Prep.

Our program is unique. With a variety of separate camps, every family and every child can find the right mix of programs to suit their summer schedules and individual interests. The programs are designed to challenge, engage, and entertain each child and—most importantly—to provide a safe place for discovery, learning, and creativity to blossom. At Poly Prep, students can hone skills in activities they already love. They can also explore new interests and possibilities in depth.
