Bear Valley YMCA Camp has been a destination for summer adventure for more than 80 years. At Bear Valley, we believe that every child should have the opportunity to experience the wonders of the High Sierra in a safe and caring environment.
Located near Emigrant Gap, Bear Valley provides kids with rewarding and life changing experiences. Read below for camping opportunities for ages 8-13 (Traditional Camp), ages 14-16 (Counselor in Training), and all ages (Family Camp).
Plus! New this year: Volunteer Junior Counselors
Too old to be a CIT? Too young to be a Counselor? 17 year olds can volunteer at camp during the 2023 summer season as "Junior Counselors''!
This fast growing and highly addictive game is a combination of tennis, badminton and ping-pong. Using a Pickleball paddle, wiffle ball, and a low net makes it ideal for all ages and abilities. The Rollingwood YMCA is excited to bring this popular game to our youth with Jr Pickleball. This 6 session class will teach your 7-13 year old the fundamentals of the game. Our qualified staff make learning fun and your child will see why everyone loves this game, whether they are 7 or 77.

Does your child like video games? Are you looking for a way to give purpose to their gaming time? The YMCA Esports Program is for you! This program offers curriculum-based learning, while also being engaging and fun for kids who are passionate about video games. Using Nintendo Switches and popular Nintendo games, such as Super Smash Bros, players will improve their gaming strategies, while also learning valuable skills such as teamwork and communication.

We would like to welcome Gail Kenney to the Y Pickleball Team!
Gail will be helping with our Pickleball 101 adult classes and spearheading our Summer Jr. Pickleball Program.
Gail has been playing pickleball since 2017 after having seen a tv news segment about it. It immediately became her passion and for the first two years she was a daily player. After retiring, she focused on qualifying as an IPTPA Level 2 certified coach, and has been working with students since 2020. Teaching pickleball is one of her great joys!
We’d like to recognize some awesome Pickleball Volunteers:
