Whether by singing or swimming, on nature hikes or in computer classes, kids at YMCA day and resident camps have developed good values – and had fun – for 125 years!

Both YMCA day and overnight camps let kids have fun while they learn how to make new friends, build new skills and grow in self-reliance. All YMCA of the East Bay camps focus on developing the four core character values embedded in all YMCA programs: caring, respect, responsibility and honesty.

 

For kids, YMCA 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, YMCA camp provides a safe alternative to child care.

 

All participants must be either a Facility Member or Basic Member to participate in any YMCA program. (Basic Annual Membership fee is $40 per year.)
