Day Camp
Grades K - 6
At YMCA Day Camp, kids have fun while they learn how to make new friends, build new skills and grow in self-reliance. Studies show that under the careful guidance of trained, certified counselors, kids grow and flourish in positive identity, social skills, physical and thinking skills, as well as the important areas of positive values and spirituality. These concepts of independence and discovery come into play every day at YMCA Day Camp.
