YMCA Day Camps

Y Day Camp keeps kids engaged, safe, healthy and learning. At the Y, we focus on your child as a whole, including top-notch sports and swimming instruction, exploration of the community, and developing life-long friendships.

Our camps are now closed for the 2024 season! Please check back in the coming months for updates about the 2025 camp season!

Are your kids ready for Camp? Y Day Summer Camps are a great place for kids to spend their summer because our wide range of state licensed day camps and programs keep kids engaged, safe, healthy and learning.

At the Y, we take a whole-child approach, and round out their summer experience with invigorating sports and swimming instruction that promotes physical well-being, exploration of the community which fosters social and emotional growth, while seamlessly weaving literacy, math, and science lessons into our curriculum. Kids can’t help but develop life-long love of learning and friendship at our camps and benefit from reduced summer learning loss.

Get ready for Y Summer Day Camps where kids can be kids and enjoy the great outdoors with swimming, field games, arts and crafts, group activities, field trips and other exciting events offered throughout the summer.
