We have three different villages of cabins: the Ridgetops, the Lakesides, and the Adventure Cabins. The cabins are fun places where you, your cabin mates, and counselors will live. The ones you come with and the new ones you make. We do limit the number of friends in any one cabin as this can cause problems with cliques or some campers being excluded. We group the cabins by our division ages – Division 1 ( 2nd-4th grade), Division 2 (5th and 6th grade), and Division 3 ( 7th-9th grade), Division 4 (10th-12th grade). #4399 YMCA CAMP ROAD REGISTRATION#We can almost always have you in a cabin with a same gender friend if you are in the same Division and as long you and your friend request each other on the registration forms.
