YMCA summer preschool camps are a great opportunity for your child to embrace his or her imagination and be creative. Through a variety of activities that feature both structured and open play, our dedicated staff members teach, model and reinforce the Y’s Christian character values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility. Weekly activities incorporate bright colors, music and interactive games to help our youngest members develop their socialization skills.
