About Summer Camp
YMCA Camp Collins is located on the Sandy River in Oregon, just 30 miles east of downtown Portland. Our 132 acres of beautiful forest and riverfront are a welcome break from the nearby city. Come discover the wonders of the outdoors through values-based programs that emphasize love, respect, honesty, responsibility and service. Check out the Day at Camp Collins video and visit Camp Programs for detailed information on all our youth and family offerings.
