Need a Father's Day gift idea? Family Camp at YMCA Camp: Horsethief Reservoir!

4 DAYS UNTIL HORSETHIEF RESERVOIR GRAND OPENING!

Dad deserves more than a golf shirt. This
Father's Day, give him a gift he'll treasure forever from the Treasure Valley Family YMCA!

The YMCA knows a little bit about treating Dad right on his special day. Father's Day was founded by Sonora Louis Smart Dodd, the daughter of a single father who served in the Civil War. On Mother's Day in 1909, Smart Dodd heard a sermon honoring mothers and wondered why there was no similar tribute for fathers. With the support of ministers in Spokane, Smart Dodd launched the first Father's Day celebration at the Spokane, Wash., YMCA on June 19, 1910.

Today, the Y remains committed to strengthening families, and the Treasure Valley Family YMCA offers programs that foster understanding and companionship between children and their dads (and moms).

One of those programs is
Family Camp at YMCA Camp: Horsethief Reservoir. That's right, our historic Grand Opening year isn't just for kids — the entire family can get away from the hectic schedules of everyday life to relax and reconnect.

Enjoy brand new cabin and yurt housing (or tent camping if that's more your style), plus access to Horsethief's multi-purpose lodge, beautiful pavilion, waterfront area, climbing tower, basketball court, archery range and miles of hiking and biking trails. For more information, visit
