Every year the Greater Joliet Area YMCA hosts commemorative picnics at each camp location to celebrate the camp season. The 2018 summer camp celebrations began with the Morris Y on Thursday, July 26 at Saratoga Elementary School. On a beautiful and sunny July afternoon, many of our campers and counselors celebrated alongside city officials, donors, volunteers and staff with lunch, fun and fellowship. The campers also had the opportunity to explore specialized farm equipment and emergency vehicles.
