More than a Summer Camp
Originally deeded to the YMCA by Clarence C. Terry in 1942 for $10, Camp Terry, an easy 20 minute drive east on I-90 from Seattle, has grown to provide a range of programs including outdoor day camp, environmental education opportunities, and group rental spaces. Supported by a host of outdoor activities, Camp Terry is a great place to spend the day.
