TRADITIONAL DAY CAMP
No matter the season—spring, winter, summer or fall—day camp at the Urban Services YMCA offers programs that build a healthy spirit, mind and body through arts and crafts, sports and fitness, recreational activities, nutrition workshops, field trips and supervised free play. All activities are appropriate for the age and skill level of each camper.
Incorporating the YMCA’s core values of caring, responsibility, honesty and respect into our day camp program gives campers the chance to learn about themselves and their community in a safe and supportive atmosphere—all while having the time of their lives!
Whether through sports, games or outdoor activities or creative art, music and special events, day camp will spark campers’ interest and imagination.

Day Camp Fees
We offer a three-tier rate structure to allow parents to determine which tier your family is able to pay for the session. This is strictly an honor system; you select the fee you feel is appropriate.
- Tier I is the full cost of camp: $150 per week
- Tier II is partially subsidized: $125 per week
- Tier III is significantly subsidized: $ 90 per week
If your family needs additional assistance, you may apply for a campership. Urban Services Y may be able to help qualified applicants with up to 50% of the Tier III fee.
SPORTS CAMPS
Basketball Camp (ages 5 to 12)
This full-day camp is led by highly trained and qualified staff. Class sizes are small to guarantee interest and productivity. We help kids grow by instilling happiness, confidence and self-assurance. We give each camper a healthy lunch and take field trips. Camp focuses on ball handling drills and moves off the dribble.
