Camp Overview
Welcome to YMCA Camp Duncan, where children and teens (ages 7-17) make lasting friendships, develop leadership skills, build self-esteem and experience the summer of a lifetime. From our personalized programming approach (in the areas of sports, fine arts, and climbing/high adventure), to our stunning 300 acres of woodlands, nature trails, lakeside setting, and pool, we have endless opportunities for campers to unplug, learn, laugh, and make memories that last a lifetime. Located only an hour from Chicago IL, there is no better place for you to call home. Come join the fun!
