About
YMCA Summer Camp is part of the YMCA of Southwest Florida and is offered alongside other youth and family programs at the Y. Camps are progressive so campers can continuously explore new adventures and responsibilities as they grow. The YMCA recognizes the strength of diversity in school-age programs and makes every reasonable accommodation for all children’s success, and very openly welcomes third party paraprofessionals and behavioral therapists to accompany children in programs. Families who are YMCA members also receive special rates on summer camp as part of their membership benefits.

I love teaching yoga and fitness classes and building relationships with the other members.” A third member, Beth Wilson, said, “I'm confident my Y workouts and Y support and encouragement will have me in shape to mark it off and then set my sights even higher.”
