GREAT SUMMERS START HERE!We provide a happy, healthy environment for children to learn and grow. At YMCA Summer Day Camp, participants gain a sense of accomplishment, build relationships and find their sense of belonging. It’s an opportunity for physical, social, emotional and cognitive learning experiences. For families, the camp offers a peace of mind knowing that your child is in a safe and enriching place.
Safety is our first priority. All Central Connecticut Coast YMCA camp programs are following all the guidelines set by the CDC, CT Office of Early Childhood (OEC), American Camp Association (ACA), Y-USA, and other sources to ensure our policies and procedures are aligned to keep our children, staff and volunteers healthy and safe. 2020 CCCY Summer Camp Safety Plan.
