YMCA Camp Weaver History
Originally established in 1955 as Triangle Y Ranch, an all-boys camp that offered archery, swimming, diving, nature lore, shelter and campfire building, and donkey riding. After many years of great camp experiences, it came time for a major overhaul of the camp facilities and infrastructure.
YMCA Camp Weaver Establishment
With a significant investment from the Weaver Family, a new era of camping started in 2003 and the camp was renamed YMCA Camp Weaver under the YMCA of Greensboro association. With a new dining hall, cabins, septic system, expanded lake, and landscaping, the facility transformed into a world-class camp.
YMCA Camp Weaver History
Since the establishment of YMCA Camp Weaver, the facility has continued to grow and serve the community in many different ways. Today, Camp Weaver serves thousands of people through its various camps, programs and activities and it continues to expand its facilities.
