Summer is the ideal time to get children out and exploring but for some, the end of the school year means no access to recreational and educational activities, which help them learn, grow and thrive. Studies show that children can experience learning loss and even gain weight twice as fast than during the school year. For parents and caregivers looking to keep their children's minds and bodies active, our Best. Summer. Ever. camps give youth an adventurous, active and healthy summer. The YMCA's Best. Summer. Ever. camp offers arts and crafts, field trips, games and sports, breakfast and lunch, team building, making friends, swimming, and so much more.
