There is no better way to spend a school break day than with the YMCA! We make the most of time off from school by packing days full of fun camp activities for kids in kindergarten to fifth grade, including arts and crafts, group games, active play, and STEM projects. The Y’s School Break Camps are designed to keep kids engaged and having fun while learning and spending time with friends old and new.
We offer a full-day camp on many no-school and break days. Program offerings vary by school district and are open to YMCA Before and After-School Enrichment (BASE) participants, Y members, and the community.
