Welcome to the Ultimate Summer Playground: Summer Camp with the Y! At the YMCA of Metro Chicago's Summer Camp, we believe in the power of play and the magic of making memories. We know that when kids show up with an open mind and a playful spirit, they unlock a world of growth, discovery, and friendships that last a lifetime. YMCA Summer Camp is designed to be a safe, supportive, and super fun environment where your child can thrive all summer long. At Y Camp, we've got a smorgasbord of activities that'll keep your kiddos learning, creating, and moving. From arts and crafts to sports and games, every day is a new adventure. Plus, we're all about fostering personal growth and social skills, so your child will leave camp with more than just great memories—they'll gain confidence and new friends too! Camp isn't just a place; it's a vibe. It's where kids can stretch their legs and their imaginations. Whether they're exploring nature, trying out new activities, or just hanging out with friends, every moment at the Y's summer camp is a chance to grow and have a blast.
