User:Southington Community YMCA/sandbox

Located in Southington, Connecticut, YMCA Camp Sloper is part of the Southington-Cheshire Community YMCA's. In opperation since 1949, the day camp property was originally a dairy farm with host to multiple business throughout it's history. The property was a site to harvest limestone for underwater cement, a creamery for the finest butters for New York, and a pond to harvest ice for upcoming summers.

The property, owned by the Sloper family since the mid-1700's, was willed to the YMCA by Cornelia Sloper Neal and opened as a day camp. Currently the day camp serves over 2,000 children per summer and is host to year-round programming.
