At the Y, we have fun for everyone this summer, regardless of your age, income or background. We bring people closer together in a welcoming, supportive environment to nurture the potential of youth, promote healthy living and give back to the community.

This summer, children can learn, grow and thrive through the exhilarating fun

of overnight, day and specialty camps at the Y. In the midst of all the fun, they’ll

explore nature, find new talents, try new activities, gain independence, and

make lasting friendships.

Teens can have fun socializing with their friends in a safe, positive environment while exploring interests, learning leadership skills, and discovering all they can achieve.

Adults can experience the fun of connecting with youth by volunteering in the day camps.

Plan your summer fun at the Central Y, and experience the impact we can make in your life and in the community.

“Our purpose should be to produce strong, healthy, happy individuals, sensitive to the needs of others, deeply concerned about the injustices of the world, equipped with the good judgment, the self-discipline and the confidence to help eliminate inequities.”

-Josephine Duveneck, Founder

Hidden Villa Summer Camp carries on that same purpose today—rooted in the Duveneck family legacy of social justice and environmental stewardship.

Each summer, campers from diverse ethnicities, economic status, religions and family structures come together to enjoy a wide range of exciting activities, farm life and wilderness exploration. In the midst of song-singing and game-playing, something profound takes place at camp. Young people learn what it means to live in community. They develop greater multicultural understanding and appreciation, resolve conflicts peacefully, cultivate independence, and overcome personal challenges. Lifelong friendships begin here, and campers take with them a new sense of awe for natural beauty.

We’re looking forward to another wonderful summer here at Hidden Villa. Please join us!

JCamp builds confidence in children & introduces them to new experiences while creating friendships in a fun/safe environment. We have incredible counselors and a huge variety of camps to meet the schedules/interests of children/families from all religions and cultures.

Jefunira Camp, founded in 1991, is built around an inclusive philosophy, and does not have a particular emphasis on any specific activity area, instead allowing campers to explore their interests in all activities without the pressure to be a master in any one. This allows a budding Picasso to have a fabulous time on the soccer field and a future Michael Jordan to unleash their creativity and build a 10 story house out of of index cards.

Jefunira Camp is also unique for our many special 'signature days' such as Bucket of Fortune, Jambalaya, Jefunira Carnival and Gladiator day! Ask any camper and they'll tell you: No day is ever the same at Jefunira Camp!

Children’s Discovery Museum (CDM) offers a unique and innovative summer program where youth can have fun, make new friends, meet new challenges, and make a difference in the community. Summer of Service (SOS) responds to the needs of young teens too old for the traditional day camp, but too young for full-time employment. SOS has been changing lives for twelve years, and is a recipient of the prestigious Promising Practices Award as an outstanding opportunity for youth.

The program offers a variety of opportunities addressing different interests. Participants attend one- or more two-week sessions serving on the team of their choosing. For example, Purple Team members prepare and facilitate activities for Museum visitors, and contribute to an SOS ‘zine and documentary video in the CDMedia.studio. Orange Team participants help out at local preschools – reading, playing games, and leading activities. Green Team members become Environmental Guardians by conducting water quality tests and cleaning the river, planting trees, and helping in CDM’s Kids’ Garden. The Striped Team is comprised exclusively of youth entering 10th grade. Striped Team members take on more in-depth service projects – designing and leading activities for younger SOS participants. Many entering 10th graders take advantage of the opportunities afforded by the Striped Team to get a head start on their high school community service requirements.
