Ridgewood YMCA Camp Woods + Camp Bernie

Welcome to Ridgewood YMCA’s Camp Woods + Camp Bernie and get ready to have your BEST SUMMER EVER! Our goal is to encourage social development and teach invaluable life skills aligned with the Y’s four core values: caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility—all while having FUN!

Whether you’re looking for a day camp experience (Camp Woods) or an overnight adventure (Camp Bernie), our summer camps allow kids to unplug and connect with their peers, their surroundings, and themselves. Campers will have the opportunity to engage in daily physical activity, crafts, sports, swimming, and more, while also participating in teamwork challenges designed to foster personal growth and promote learning.

Join us at The Flavor Labs, a kitchen where children can experiment with food while having fun!  We are excited to announce Summer Camp for both Norwood and Paramus locations for ages 6+. Sessions are divided into two groups: Mini Chefs (ages 6-9) in morning camp (9-12) and Budding Chefs (ages 10-14) in afternoon camp (1-4)

Similar to our classes, our camp has a mission to change the way children engage with food. Our camp will incorporate elements of science and math, while also harnessing your child’s creativity as we work our way through different ingredients, cuisines and techniques.

Each week-long session will expose children to a wide variety of recipes – and every day students will make at least one sweet and one savory dish. Snacks and spring water will be provided each day. Recipes will be different across each of our five week-long programs. Our FIVE Weekly Themes include: Summer Foodie Favorites, All-American Road Trip, Baking Bootcamp, Restaurant Week and Bakery Favorites!
