Overview
Nestled into the sloping pine-covered hills of Arbutus Lake, Camp Arbutus Hayo-Went-Ha for Girls features breathtaking tree canopies dotted with historic buildings befitting its 1914 roots. At YMCA Hayo-Went-Ha Camps, our campers forge genuine connections, discover their place in the world, and unlock their best selves.
By unplugging from the digital world and engaging with nature, campers develop essential life skills such as resilience and leadership. Our wilderness trips are tailored to each age group, encouraging campers to step out of their comfort zones, overcome challenges, and build strong friendships.

Welcome Message
Mackenzie (MackMo), Camp Director
Welcome to YMCA Hayo-Went-Ha Camps! This place is near and dear to my heart as I grew up as both a camper and staffer here at HWH starting in 2006 until becoming the director here now!
