YMCA Summer Camps!
The YMCA is ready to go for Summer Day Camp by offering a safe and fun environment for your child. Our strict safety protocols have been established by the American Camping Association including new COVID-19 operational guidelines.
We know your child is ready for summer and we understand that parents have a natural concern about our group care. Camp Directors are working hard to institute additional precautions including social distancing measures, sanitization procedures, and detailed health checks to ensure campers and staff are safe.
Changes have been made to our camp structure this summer due to COVID-19. For example, we are unable to do field trips or have large group ceremonies at our camps. The world has changed since last summer, and we must adapt, but what has not changed is our commitment to your child's need for fun, making new friends, exploring their talents, learning new skills, and making new memories.
