The YMCA of the Sandhills Day Camp will give kids the opportunity for swimming, craft time, STEM activities and play time.
“Summer Day Camp at the Y gives kids a place to make new friends, stay active, learn new skills, swim, unplug from screens, and just have fun in a safe, supportive, welcoming place all summer long,” said Chealsea Sias, Association Director of Youth Development for YMCA of the Sandhills. “The Y also provides peace of mind for working parents while school is out that their children are making memories, off of their devices for the day, and just being kids while they play with their peers and learn from our trained staff. There’s no place like the Y when it comes to summer fun and kids.”
Teens can also participate in Leaders in Training and Counselors in Training programs. These courses allow younger teens the opportunity to learn from Day Camp counselors and help out with the younger kids throughout their activities. The cost is $80 a week for members and $85 a week for non-members. Teens can apply using the link above. The YMCA provides physical and mental well being supports for teens. Teens and parents can use the Teen Mental Health Resource Hub, a tool for learning more and getting help if it is needed…
