SUMMER DAY CAMPS

Our Y summer day camps provides kids with a variety of imaginative activities that nurture their spirits, challenge their minds and make their bodies healthy and strong. We make sure that our campers have fun while making new friends, building self-confidence and growing to become more self-reliant.

Our carefully selected counselors work with campers on creating masterpieces during arts and crafts, explore science and technology, go on field trips, appreciate nature and discover the world around them.

Make sure to mark your calendars - registration starts February 22 for summer camp!

SAFETY & GROUP RATIOS


Here at the Y, we believe kids need a safe, positive environment to play, learn and grow. Our energetic staff is carefully hand-picked for their enthusiasm, knowledge, responsibility and genuine concern for our campers. We make sure that they are trained in CPR and First Aid and that there's always someone to lend a hand.

In our 5-10 year old programs there 12-15 campers assigned to a counselor. No more than 10 campers are assigned to each counselor in our 3-4 year old program and no more than 20 campers are assigned to each counselor in our 11-14 year old program.
