Camp Explorer
YMCA traditional Summer Day Camps are packed with activities, games and fun. Campers spend the day swimming, creating crafts and art, playing sports like kickball, pickup basketball, and soccer and playing games like gaga ball and capture the flag. Campers spend time inside and outside during the day depending on the weather and activity. Read more about a typical day at YMCA Day Camp.
All campers are encouraged to try everything, to do their best and are led by a team of YMCA youth staff and counselors.
You can read more about how we operate our day camps in the YMCA Parent Manual. Details include safety information and links to our medication forms and packing lists.
We can’t wait to see your children this summer. After all, a strong summer means strong kids.
This summer, pricing is the same for members and program participants.
Camp Explorer is based at East Clayton Elementary and serves children in rising grades 1 - 5.
We also have a special group for rising kindergartners with modified activities that are age-appropriate - FULL
