Title A name given to the resource YWCA Camp Onanda Lakeside Description An account of the resource At a location sometimes called Parkhurst Point or Point Rochester, this popular YWCA camp began as a "Vacation House" rented to single young women at very reasonable rates. It seems to have taken its name from an association of donors, who went on to build out recreation facilities, dormitories, and dining halls. At its peak Camp Onanda hosted up to 150 visitors per session, gradually shifting from young working women to school-age campers and church groups. In 1989, faced with untenable costs of ownership the YWCA donated the facility to the town of Canadaigua. It's now a park.

Title A name given to the resource Relaxing at YWCA Camp Wacona Description An account of the resource Part of the Young Women's Christian Association program was finding suitable housing for young single women, often relocating from rural areas to work in cities. Rochester headquarters on North Clinton offered affordable housing, but the organization also wanted opportunities for recreational travel, to "healthy" locations. As of 1909, a vacation house on Canandaigua Lake was available for a modest rental; it later became known as Camp Onanda. But YWCA staff sought a closer, more easily accessible location. A property known as the "Davis Cottage" near Sea Breeze had been loaned to the Association, then purchased and developed into Camp Wacona.  A newspaper article at the time described its virtues like this: "Situated on a high point of a bluff within walking distance of the park, the cottage commands a fine view of the surroundings and back of it are attractive woods. The beach is excellent for bathing. Several teachers are taking Sunday school classes for three or four days" (Rochester Democrat & Chronicle 3 Aug. 1909: 14). In 1931 the property was sold and its proceeds used to build a dormitory at Camp Onanda. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Stone, Albert R.
