SUMMER CAMP
REGISTRATION NOW IN PROGRESS
Summer options through the Channel Islands YMCA camp programs include Summer Day Camp (weekly childcare), Specialty Camp & Resident Camp.
Although they may be structured differently, YMCA day and overnight resident camps provide the same outcome: Kids have fun while they learn how to make new friends, build new skills and grow in selfreliance. Y camps use a natural setting to teach youth about the wonders of the world around them and how they can take good care of it. Some offer special sessions on academics, sports, arts, or teen adventure or leadership.
All camps are American Camping Association (ACA) Accredited and
staff is trained in CPR, 1st AID, child supervision, and child abuse prevention. For kids, Y camp is a fun way to enjoy the summer. For moms and dads, it's a way to give their children a positive developmental experience. And for parents who work outside the home, Y camp also serves as child care.
Camperships are available and have been made possible through the generosity of the Santa Barbara Foundation, the Wood-Claeyssens Foundation and the YMCA campaign for Youth.
