Over a 100 Years of Memories, A Lifetime of Impact
Since 1922, YMCA Camp Cosby has grown from serving 300 campers each summer to over 2,000. While much has changed – new facilities, expanded programs, and more opportunities, the heart of Cosby remains the same: friendships, traditions, and experiences that shape lives for generations.
On June 4, 2022, we proudly celebrated our 100th-Year Anniversary with alumni, campers, staff, and families from across the decades. Together, we honored our past, celebrated our present, and looked forward to the future of Camp Cosby.
Thank you to every alumni, staff member, camper, donor, and friend who made this milestone unforgettable.
