Why Choose CYO Camps?
Since 1950, tens of thousands of campers have experienced CYO Summer Camping. They tell us one of the best things we do is provide a positive, supportive community in which each camper is valued and appreciated. You will find opportunities at each of our camps to learn more about yourself and experience God’s presence in a new way. You will have a blast learning new skills, making new friends, and living and playing in the beautiful outdoors. If you want to sing around the campfire, sleep under the stars, make new friends, and have tons of fun this summer, you’ll want to choose CYO camps.

Catholic Camping Makes a Difference
Each CYO summer camp session becomes a vibrant, Catholic faith community which offers you a fun-filled, challenging week in a safe, natural setting. Campers discover a sense of self, and appreciation of others and nature, and see all these wonders as a reflection of God, our Creator. At CYO summer camp each day becomes an adventure and each adventure is part of a larger journey. From young child to young adult, CYO has had a lasting impact on the personal, social and spiritual growth of thousands of people for over fifty years. Join us for the journey this summer!
“The best thing CYO does is to allow kids to simply enjoy life without all the outside problems society brings to the world. CYO gives children the opportunity to explore their faith, make new friends, and to find and strengthen their own individual gifts in a nurturing and safe environment.”
“When she got off the bus, she burst into tears because it was over. She said she had ‘been herself’ at camp and ‘everyone loved me.’ It just doesn’t get much better than that.”
“I think spirituality is a vital part of the CYO camp experience, so I was glad that my daughter mentioned talks with counselors, Mass, and prayer time as things she enjoyed while at camp!!”
“Our son has always had a very strong understanding of his faith and spirituality, but it was good for him to find a place where it was acceptable to share his faith. Gallagher is a place where ‘it’s cool to believe in God.’”
