YMCA Storer Camps sits on approximately 1300 acres in the beautiful Irish Hills region of southeast Michigan.  Founded in 1918 as the summer camp facility of the YMCA of Greater Toledo, YMCA Storer Camps has long served the communities of Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan. Much of what YMCA Storer Camps has become is owed to the direction of Robert Dale “Doc” Miller.  Doc Miller served as director of Storer Camps for over 2 decades.  The original 8 acres of Storer Camps sit on the South Center with a chapel dedicated to Doc’s memory.  Over time, Storer Camps grew to include most of the waterfront of the 240 acre Stony Lake.  Storer Camps expanded to offer Outdoor Education starting in the late 1960’s as one of the first programs in the United States.

Currently, Camps operate on both sides of Stony Lake in what is called the North and South Centers.  The North Center is home to the Outdoor School, as well as Youth and Teen Camp.  The South Center operates from May-September and is the home of our Specialty and Day Camps.
