DEWITTVILLE YMCA Camp Onyahsa recently completed its $1.5 million “Our Fantastic Future” capital improvement project, and is preparing to welcome campers back to a bright future.
The campaign was launched in 2016 to improve and upgrade the infrastructure and facilities of the 123-year old institution, in addition to establishing permanent scholarship funds and creating a property endowment.
In total, $1,553,453 was raised for physical improvements, including over $500,000 in grants and contributions from non-local sources, alumni, camper families and national foundations.
