CAMP HORSESHOE
Nestled in the hills of the Monongahela National Forest, Camp Horseshoe has been making an impact on campers since 1940.
A week of camp at Horseshoe weaves together a beautiful mountain setting away from the distractions of today’s busy lives with a subtle, yet deliberate, community-building experience of small discussion groups, cabin life, family style meals, connecting with others, problem solving, responsibilities, and hands-on leadership activities.
Teens return home with a new vision, commitment, and skills to strengthen their YLA Chapters to impact their peers, school, and greater community. Invest one week at Horseshoe and you’ll gain skills, friendships and memories to last a lifetime!
