Join us at the Y’s brand-new lakeside mountain day camp located just 20 miles from Boulder. YMCA Camp Tumbleson Lake is a beautiful 300-acre outdoor adventure camp that celebrates exploration, nature education and recreation.
Campers will get to experience the joys and adventures of traditional overnight camp — but they will get to come home each night with stories to share. Campers will grow their outdoor skills and knowledge while connecting with the camp community and building confidence and resilience… and of course, having a mountain of fun. YMCA Camp Tumbleson Lake will be unlike any day camp in Boulder County.
