OSWEGO – Camp Hollis is still accepting summer camp applications and has some spots available for a number of weeks in July and August.

Open to youth ages 8 through 14, Camp Hollis offers a week-long summer residential camp experience complete with swimming, nature hikes, games, campfires, arts and crafts, and many more activities. Camp Hollis is owned and operated by the Oswego City-County Youth Bureau.

“Applications should be submitted as soon as possible to obtain your choice of dates, as weeks are filling up fast,” said Brandon Morey, Coordinator of Youth Development and Recreation for the Oswego City-County Youth Bureau.

Youth may register for week-long sessions scheduled for June 30 through Aug. 16.  There will be a mini-camp June 27 and June 28 to introduce eight-year-olds to an overnight summer camp experience.
