For nearly a century, the YMCA has led the way as the nation’s largest and most respected provider of summer time activities for youth. What makes Y camps so special? For starters, honesty, respect, responsibility, and caring are the cornerstones of every YMCA program. In addition, the Y adds a unique component to help children develop positive identities, values, and social skills. That component is known as “Development Assets.” These 40 essential character building blocks that young people need to grow up to be healthy, competent, caring and responsible adults. So don’t miss out on YMCA Summer Camp. We build strong kids, and stronger lives.
