Fun, delivered fresh daily!
Keep your kids active and happy this summer! When you bring your child to the YMCA’s Summer Day Camp, you’re not just dropping off your child for a day of fun activities, you’re tapping into an expert summer camp resource committed to providing a high-quality, age-appropriate experience. Camp registration is set up as weekly sessions so you can choose which week you want to attend.
There is no organization quite like the Y. Deeply rooted in your community, our movement is made up of people of all ages and from every walk of life, all working side-by-side to ensure everyone, regardless of gender, income or background has the opportunity to live a meaningful and Christ honoring life. Being true to the mission, the YMCA is committed to providing a quality Christian childcare experience in a loving, caring, and safe environment. Following the example of Christ, we value caring, honesty, respect, responsibility and faith, and everything we do stems from this. Our staff at multiple sites in 2 different counties are all personally committed to helping families raise their children to their fullest potential.
At the YMCA, we are passionate about quality and safety. Parents can enjoy peace of mind that their child is participating in meaningful activities and experiences that align with their needs and abilities. Every day is an opportunity for your child to try new experiences, form friendships and build confidence in a welcoming environment.
No two weeks at summer camp are the same. Throughout the summer, we feature different themes filled with new activities, new experiences and new memories. Whether it’s playing a new sport, learning about science and nature or exploring their creativity, your child can enjoy a summer full of friendships, achievement and belonging.
To contact the Childcare team regarding Summer Camp, please email [email protected] or contact one of our branches.
