No one does camp like the Y!
Help your child set and achieve new goals, build meaningful connections and experience a camp where they truly feel a sense of belonging. YMCA Summer Camps offer discovery, creativity and outdoor fun! With themed weeks, hands-on activities and academic enrichment, children build skills, make friends and create memories in a safe, supportive environment.

At the Y, your kids will leave ordinary at the door and prepare to learn and grow with positive role models encouraging campers to take on new challenges.

What our Parents Think:
“It gave my daughter a chance to have something to look forward to in the summer. Day camp offered an experience that challenged her creative thinking and allowed her to build friendships. I felt that she was in a safe and friendly environment while I was working during the day.”
