Summer day camp provides youth with an opportunity to enjoy summer outdoors with friends.  At YMCA camp, we focus on building a sense of achievement – trying new things, building relationships and a community where everyone belongs.

Please note that 5 year olds must have completed Kindergarten as of the end of the 2025-2026 school year to participate in Camp Discovery, Camp Friendship, Camp Forge, Camp Spirit, Camp STEAM or Camp Unity.

Camp Unity Tots serves children ages 3-5.
