YMCA Camp Sherwin
by Dawn Stearns
YMCA Camp Sherwin is located in Lake City, PA on the shores of Lake Erie, between Walnut Creek and Elk Creek Access areas. It is a public campground with tent, RV, seasonal sites, and cabin facilities. Facilities are also available for weddings and group events. Besides camping, the YMCA Summer Camp Day Programs also are operated from this camp. The camp also holds wellness programs, community events, and weekend family activities for all ages and interest groups. Our hosts can be individuals or teams such as a husband and wife. Must be over 21 years old. The schedule will be flexible enough for the host to still enjoy the many resources of Erie County. Benefits of being a host camper at YMCA Camp Sherwin Campground: 1. Free campsite with water, electric, and dumping station, ice and WIFI. 2. Metro YMCA Membership during your hosting period. 3. Use of recreational amenities, including swimming pool. 4.

Camp Sherwin Campground hosts perform a variety of tasks, such as greeting customers, handing out information, replacing restroom supplies, cleaning campsites, cleaning up cabin, and informing the camp director about potential problems. The manager will approve specific duty hours and assignments not to exceed 25 hours per week. We ask for at least a commitment of three weeks between April 1 and December 12. Hosts at YMCA Camp Sherwin need to become familiar with local points of interest and the location where local services can be obtained, e.g. fuel, LP, bait, and groceries. Hosts will perform light maintenance work around the campground, such as sweeping and stocking supplies at the shower house, mowing the lawn and other yard work, help setting up the halls for rentals, helping with small constructions projects, making emergency minor repairs when possible, and various other duties. On duty hours may include weekend hours and will be mutually agreed between the manager and host.
