Founded in 1934, Camp Hiawatha is a cherished Wichita landmark with a rich history that has touched the hearts of generations.

The beloved property was acquired by the Greater Wichita YMCA in 2023. It spans 42 acres of beautiful natural surroundings, providing a perfect setting for Y youth summer day camps starting in 2024. Y camps are all about helping children develop life skills while having fun, and there’s no better destination for discovery and learning than Camp Hiawatha! With a diverse range of activities, facilities and amenities, it's a place for kids to build a strong foundation for the future.  

In addition to be a place for youth, this retreat is also available for rental by community groups. It's a fantastic space for gatherings, team-building and outdoor events that allow people to get away and connect with each other.
