The YMCA of Metro Atlanta today announced registration is open for summer camp day sessions at its 18 locations across metro Atlanta. Availability is on a first-come, first-serve basis and registration can be completed online or in-person at Y locations.
The day camp program focuses on social-emotional learning, while providing campers with the opportunity to express themselves and build successful relationships with others. The Y’s traditional day camps include challenging and fun activities that feature weekly themes, promote personal growth and encourage campers to have fun with their peers. Based on each camp location, campers can experience additional activities such as archery, canoe rides and more.
“The YMCA of Metro Atlanta summer day camp program provides a unique experience allowing children to expand their interests and learn new skills in a safe and nurturing environment,” said Lauren Koontz, president and CEO of the YMCA of Metro Atlanta. “We are proud to offer programs that build children’s self-esteem and independence.”
In addition to traditional day camps, the Y offers specialty camps, which include sports, STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics), teen leadership, swim and more. Individuals may register for traditional camps on a daily or weekly basis, while specialty camps require weekly sign-ups.
