Day Camp

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.
