Fun for the Whole Family
Activities vary by location. Here's a sampling of what to expect at your local YMCA:
Snack Ideas
All kids love snacks! Need a little inspiration on some ways to turn your snack into a healthy and yummy treat? We've got some great kid-friendly ideas to share!
Water Safety
Before summer starts, it’s important to brush up on your family’s water safety. Learn how to properly fit a lifejacket, how to throw and not go, and the importance of utilizing a water watcher.
Sports Challenges
Ready to show off your dribbling and shooting skills? Or try your hand at something new? Get your body moving in a fun sports challenge!
Bounce Houses
Ready to run, jump, and bounce? So are we! From bounce houses to obstacle courses and more, get ready to move your body and get the wiggles out.
Arts & Crafts
Our camp team will lead you in a super fun camp craft, and be ready to answer any questions about YMCA summer camp.
