YMCA Preschool Camp at Nir Family YMCA
For our youngest campers, this half-day program provides enriching experiences in a safe, age appropriate setting. Campers will enjoy activities organized around weekly themes including games, sports, participation in swim lessons twice a week, camp songs, arts and crafts, story time and more.
With a 1:7 staff to camper ratio, we emphasize a hands-on learning curriculum, motor skill development and creativity as we strive to provide an environment for preschoolers to learn, gain self-confidence, make new friends, and respect others.

At the Y, we think summer fun, new friends and positive role models should be available to every child. That's why we provide scholarships to families who need help making camp a reality. If your family needs a little help, scholarship applications are available online and are kept completely confidential. Funds are made possible because of the generous donations made through our Annual Giving Campaign. You can send a child to camp by making a tax-deductible gift online to the Y's Annual Giving Campaign.
