Oldham County Family YMCA Summer Day Camps
Summer is the perfect time to explore new interests and discover hidden talents. Campers will spend their day being physically active, experience success, become more confident, unplug from technology, develop lifelong skills, grow more independent, learn social skills, reconnect with nature and make friends.
Camp Intro
Children will have the opportunity to make their summer active and fun through crafts, sports, indoor and outdoor games, new friends and other fun ways to discover who they are. Although still structured, YMCA Summer Camps are more relaxed than the school routine and offer time and freedom for spontaneous play.
