2023 YM Camp

August 8th - 12th

“Come to the Water”

The Annual trip you look forward to all year—at Neah Bay!

Camp begins Tuesday, August 8th (meet at Dave Smith’s house at 218 W Kinnear Place at 9 am) and ends on Saturday, August 12th. More details to follow.

Join the young men of the Seattle North Stake for 5 days of camping, water adventures, and spiritual experiences. Friends welcome!

Pre-Camp Activity!

Prior to Camp, all young men are invited to a Stake YM social activity on Wednesday, August 2nd at 7 pm at Dave Smith’s house (218 W Kinnear Place). The main purpose of activity is to inventory and try on wetsuits and do a little planning. We will also have some snacks and have fun hanging out. We have a pretty good collection of wetsuits, but if you have access to a wetsuit please bring it to Camp!

Please make sure to review the packing list below. Once we have your registration, we’ll send details about transportation to/from camp. And if you have any questions, please email George Durham, Stake YM Camp Director.
