The YMCA offers your child more than just a safe, fun experience. It’s a place where children will grow, meet new friends and experience new things. YMCA Day Camp programs seek to build character, demonstrate values and develop skills for life.

Our YMCA Licensed Day Camp programs provide your child with unique opportunities to learn and grow, create and explore, and participate in a variety of activities. Weekly themes and field trips offer creative links for children to learn about themselves and the world around them. Our experienced staff plans a variety of imaginative activities that nurture their spirits, challenge their minds, and strengthen their bodies.

The camp is a wonderful setting for campers to enjoy water activities, hiking trails, forests, marshlands and the beauty of Alaska's magnificent environment. Campers engage in activities designed to develop the four YMCA Character Values of CARING, HONESTY, RESPONSIBILITY AND RESPECT.
