| Summer Day Camp
Entering Grades 1 – 6
Our purpose at Day Camp is more than the supervision of children. It is teaching children to live and work together while fostering self-esteem in this amazing outdoor environment. Day Camp is a wonderful way to experience the fun and excitement of traditional summer camp and be able to share the day’s stories with family each night. Campers will participate in archery, arts and crafts, hiking, nature activities, climbing tower, field games and believe it or not, much more! (Day campers do not ride horses except during Session 9). Daily activities will include morning chapel focusing on one of the YMCA's values, as well as the opportunity to swim with friends every afternoon.
Lunch is served outside daily in the picnic grove, and campers also receive a snack at the end of the day. Our staff-to-child ratio is 1 to 10.
We provide daily bus service from Northeast Portland (Alameda Elementary School, 2732 NE Fremont Portland, OR 97212) Gresham (Gresham United Methodist Church at 8th and Norman Street),the Clackamas (Sunnyside Elementary School at 13401 Southeast 132nd Avenue) and Southeast Portland (Creston Elementary School at 4701 Southeast Bush Street). Supervision begins at 7:30 a.m. and ends at 6:00 p.m.
