YMCA CAMP DAKANI, part of the YMCA of Greater Oklahoma City, offers year-round outdoor experiences that spark confidence, connection, and a true sense of belonging. Nestled on beautiful wooded acreage in the heart of Oklahoma City, camp invites youth, families, and our community to explore, discover, and build bridges to the magic of camp and the great outdoors. At Camp DaKaNi, everything we do is rooted in helping young people grow—building friendships, gaining independence, and developing a deeper connection to the world around them. Camp Experience Camp DaKaNi serves youth ages 7–15 through our Day Camp and Teen Camp programs. Campers are thoughtfully grouped by age and guided by trained Youth Development Counselors who create safe, engaging, and meaningful experiences each day. Rather than staying in one place, campers rotate through a variety of activities designed to help them try new things, build skills, and discover what they love. Every moment at camp is an opportunity to build confidence, friendships, and lifelong memories. ⏰ Camp Hours • Camp Day: 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM • Extended Care: 4:00 PM– 6:00 PM Core Camp Activities Campers participate in a wide range of outdoor adventures and skill-building experiences, including: • Zipline & Low Ropes Challenge Course • Rock Climbing • Archery & Target Sports • Outdoor Cooking & Survival Skills • Nature Exploration & Environmental Education • Water-Based Activities (age-appropriate) • Team-Building & Leadership Challenges Camper Choice & Free Play In addition to scheduled activities, campers have opportunities to explore their interests through: • Activity Block – Specialty Camps • GaGa Ball & Field Games • Creative Arts & Crafts • Hiking & Nature Discovery • Group Games & Camp Traditions • Open recreation and social connection The YMCA Camp DaKaNi Difference At YMCA CAMP DAKANI, we are building bridges—to confidence, to community, and to lifelong impact.
