Join us for YMCA Summer Day Camp!

Play. Grow. Thrive

Summer Day Camp is a chance for children ages 5 to 12 with select camps for 13-14 year olds to create endless summer memories. With a fresh selection of traditional and speciality camps there is something for everyone! We look forward to helping campers learn and grow as they unplug from screen time to develop new skills, create friendships, and explore personal interests and more.

At the YMCA Day Camp, the core values are the cornerstones of character development. Campers are encouraged to treat one another with dignity and we strive to celebrate positive actions by learning about growth through caring, respect, honesty, responsibility, inclusiveness, health and advocacy.

Get ready for an unforgettable summer of fun, growth and discovery!

During a day camp experience campers will participate in a variety of activities.

  • Active games

  • Creative activities

  • Community and Team building activities

  • Outdoor discovery

  • Personal character development
