In the land of the cheese heads, where the air is as crisp as a freshly picked McIntosh apple and rivers are as clear as a glass of mom's lemonade, lies the terrific state of Wisconsin. This delightful land is filled with cheese, cows, and Packers fans. But it's also known for its beautiful lakes and rivers. For the kids of Wisconsin, there’s a special magic that happens when they pick up a fishing rod. Oh, and have you met WisconSam? He’s a plump, friendly Badger with a fishing hat that always seems a tad too big for his furry head. WisconSam loves fishing and he’s the self-proclaimed "Fishing Mentor" for all the kids in Wisconsin. He’s as funny as a clown in a tickle fight, always ready with a comical tale about the time he tangled with a fish as big as a football player. Every morning, he gathers all the young fishing enthusiasts and takes them on a remarkable journey. They listen carefully as WisconSam tells hilarious tales of the elusive ‘Cheezy Cheddar Carp’ or the ‘Bratwurst Bass’ that lurk in the waters. The kids cast their lines with giggles, carefully holding their fishing rods, their eyes filled with sparkles of hope and excitement. They wait patiently, hoping to reel in a big one. From the giggling shores of Lake Superior to the chuckling waters of the Mississippi River, the laughter of kids echoes all across Wisconsin. While they might not always catch the biggest fish, they always end up with the biggest smiles.

At Phantom Lake YMCA Camp, your child will find a safe and nurturing environment designed to help them let go of daily life and truly relax. We offer a variety of options for families to choose from, so you can pick the one that feels right for your family. Our counselors are top-notch—they build a family-like atmosphere to ensure each camper feels included and respected. There’s a reason why parents have been sending their kids to our camp for more than 120 years. It’s why our counselors return year after year. It’s why kids come back from camp feeling a sense of belonging and purpose. It’s because campers get to be their true selves, and have experiences that will shape them for the rest of their lives.
