CAMP WEPAWAUG & DISCOVERY CAMP
At the Woodruff Y, we believe that summer camp is more than the trees, fields, ponds and picnic tables. Camp is the songs that are sung, friendships that are made, lessons that are learned and the feeling children get when they know they are welcome and belong.
Detailed information about Camp Wepawaug, Discovery Camp and our Specialty Camps can be found in our camp brochure: Woodruff Y Camp Brochure 2013 To register, please fill out the Woodruff Y Camp Registration Form 2013 and drop it off at the Y.
For even more information, please stop by the Y or call 203 878 6501. We look forward to seeing you this summer!
