UCYC is a well-organized, Christ-centered camp that provides an enjoyable experience for church youth groups. The staff is fantastic, and the worship is amazing, making it highly recommended for any youth program. The camp offers a variety of fun activities, including paintball, that keep the students engaged and entertained.
However, some areas could use improvement. Over the years, the maintenance of the cabins and the quality of the food have declined, with the food being described as "a little unpleasant" by one reviewer. Additionally, the management of the food line has been an issue, with students cutting in line.
Despite these shortcomings, UCYC is still considered the best camp experience for many youth groups, with one reviewer stating that their students "immediately asked if we could come back for winter camp." The camp's fantastic staff, engaging activities, and Christ-centered focus make it a popular choice for church youth programs.
I spent 3 years at UCYC back in 01, 02, and 03 as a 6th, 7th and 8th grader. All 3 weeks I spent there was the highlight of my year. Between the swimming, paint balling, field time, hanging out with friends, and worshiping, there was not a time I didn’t love. I miss all the summers spent there.
