Resident Camp – Camp Peggy Lake
YMCA Camp Peggy Lake is surrounded by 320 acres of rustic wilderness located about 100 miles north of Anchorage of the Parks Highway. The camp is a wonderful setting for campers to enjoy water activities, hiking trails, forests, marshlands and the beauty of Alaska’s magnificent environment. Campers engage in activities designed to develop the four YMCA Character Values of CARING, HONESTY, RESPONSIBILITY AND RESPECT. It is also the goal to develop self-esteem, a strong sense of community and an appreciation for our natural environment.
