YMCA of the Chesapeake day camps are centered around improving the well-being of children and support each child’s individuality. They intentionally focus on three areas of development: friendships, accomplishment and belonging. The YMCA team creates a safe and vibrant environment that allows children to:
Learn and master skills that nurture their passions, talents and potential.
Bond with new friends and positive staff role models to create lasting memories.
Know they belong so they feel welcome and free to express who they are.
