C.W. AVERY Family YMCA Summer Camp
Summer's Cooler at the YMCA
At the C.W. Avery Family YMCA, we provide a safe, affordable and fun summer day camp program for youth and teens. YMCA Summer Day Camp offers kids a chance to have fun and develop new friendships while building a healthy spirit, mind, and body. Campers will enjoy up to ten weeks of summer fun full of swimming, sports, outdoor exploration, arts and crafts, and more.
PLEASE NOTE: This summer day camp location is now FULL. Families can still register to be placed on a waitlist, should spots open up. We apologize for any inconvenience.
STAYING HEALTHY TOGETHER
To keep everyone healthy and safe this summer, we will follow guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and local, state, and federal health officials.
