Summer Camp is more than just child care, Y camp creates a world of good where children find a sense of belonging and parents are assured their child is safe and making new discoveries every day. Y Camp is accredited by the American Camp Association, which recognizes that the YMCA facilitates summer camp programs that are commitment to building a safe, nurturing environment for their children. The memories, friendships, and skills from summer camp stay with a child long after back-to-school.
“I was a bridesmaid in a wedding of a friend I met at Y Camp. We were campers, then camp staff together. I led the entire wedding party in a repeat-after-me song we learned while at Y Camp. It was a full circle moment.” - Shianne Motter, Former Y camper
While a child is free to play and explore at camp, they are also developing cognitive and social-emotional abilities. Play time with new friends is not time wasted. Summer Camp at the Y is structured with adventure, songs, sports, and crafts, which serve as powerful forms of self-discovery, and teachable moments. The enrollment registration process can be completed online for the first time this year, and camp is filling up a record speed. Make sure your camper does not miss out on the best summer ever at the Y.
