Day Camp

 

YMCA Day Camp - Kindergarten to 8th Grade

Using a fun, hands-on approach, New York YMCA Day Camp provides campers with the opportunity to discover all the wonders of the natural world around them on our 1,150 acres. As they participate in safe, organized, age appropriate activities, campers gain a basic knowledge of ecology and science while developing an appreciation for the environment. Campers also participate in outdoor skills, sports and art & crafts. These structured activities encompass the morning and early afternoon while swimming in our lake is a refreshing end to the day.

New York YMCA Day Camp is located in Huguenot, NY, just minutes from Port Jervis and convenient to Eastern Pennsylvania.
