NEW THIS SUMMER!
Specialty Camps
The goal of specialty camp is to gain new skills in select areas. Campers will have the opportunity to showcase the skills they have learned to the Day Camp at the end of each week. Each specialty camp is carefully planned by the Camp Director and Camp Specialists and has a unique curriculum in place.

Swim Lessons
Nurturing skills and building confidence in the water! In each
community, the Y is in the service of building a better us. One of the most effective ways to accomplish this is to teach youth and teens to swim, so they can stay safe around water and learn the skills they need to make swimming a lifelong pursuit to stay healthy!
Swim Basic Stage 1-3 (Acclimation, Movement, Stamina): Students learn personal water safety and achieve basic swimming competency by learning two benchmark skills: swim, float, swim—sequencing front glide, roll, back float, roll, front glide and exit—and jump, push, turn, grab.
Swim Stroke Stage 4-6 (Introduction, Development, Mechanics): Students work on refining stroke technique and learning all major competitive strokes in swimming lessons. The emphasis on water safety continues through treading water and sidestroke.
Diverse Abilities Camp
We encourage and support the participation of individuals with
diverse abilities in all programs and services. During the camp
day opportunities are created for children to enhance their
self-esteem, build friendships, develop greater independence and give campers a sense of their creative potential in a safe, fun and nurturing environment. Volunteers ages 13+ will be paired with campers and participate in activities throughout the day. One on one is NOT provided.
