Our Trees Are Filled with Memories

This Holiday Season, Help Us Create More Memories at SJYC

At St. Joseph’s Youth Camp, each tree, trail, and campfire holds a story. Every year, we watch as children build lasting memories of friendship, adventure, and personal growth. This holiday season, you can help us fill our trees with even more memories. Whether you donate or purchase items from our Amazon Wish List, your generosity is not just about this season—it’s about planting the seeds for new adventures, milestones, and memories in the coming year!

We’re also excited for all the new adventures next summer holds. Your support this holiday season is more essential than ever as we set our sights on another year of milestones and goals to make camp even more special.

This year, we aim to:

  • Expand Programs: Building on our legacy of sleepaway camp success, we’re excited to introduce an affordable day camp option in the Flagstaff area, bringing the SJYC experience to even more families.

  • Strengthen Camp Experiences: With updates to our programming, we’re enhancing the activities and learning opportunities that make our camp experience unforgettable.

  • Grow Our Capacity: As we welcome more campers, we're enhancing our facilities and operations to ensure we can fully support this growth.
