WHIDBEY ISLAND — Camp Casey, a former U.S. Army fort turned campground and conference center, is changing hands for the first time in over 70 years.

Seattle Pacific University, the current owner, is selling the 84-acre property and its facilities to the YMCA of Snohomish County. The YMCA will take over operations at the start of next year.
