Summer Camps at the Y are coming soon, and registration is already open for single-day camps!
This summer marks 65 years of adventure, and YMCA of the Foothills camps continue to offer an enriching environment for children in the community to have fun while staying active and social.
Each week campers will engage in swimming, physical activities, arts and crafts, plus weekly off-site adventures (field trips) and more.
For campers interested in bigger adventures, they can choose between two resident camp options — Camp Bear in Big Bear and Camp Fox at Catalina Island. Campers will spend the week engaging in fun-filled activities such as swimming, kayaking, fishing, snorkeling, paddle boarding, archery, tubing, ropes courses, gaga ball, and more. Both camps provide a perfect setting to disconnect from the distractions of home and tune into the sun, lake, campfire, active lifestyle and friends.
There’s something to fit every interest and schedule, along with extended care options for those who need more flexibility. Teens wanting to develop leadership skills and become a future camp counselor should explore the Y’s LIT Program (Leadership in Training) at Camp Bear this summer. The opportunities are endless!
Did you know there’s a non-school day-camp on March 20 and 31 designed to keep kids in kindergarten through 8th grade intellectually stimulated while they’re not in school? Activities include arts and crafts, sports, swimming, games and lots of socialization.
Spring Camp is also around the corner with similar activities for the selected weeks of March 13-17 and April 3-7. Registration for both camps are open now!
Camp Sign-Up Day for summer is Saturday, March 4 at Crescenta-Cañada Family YMCA from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Online registration opens at 2 p.m.
The YMCA of the Foothills Camps are accredited by the American Camp Association and adhere to all current Los Angeles County Department of Public Health COVID-19 required protocols.
