We camp Summer is a special time in a child’s life. It’s when memories are made. It’s when they learn to swim. It’s when they get to make huge messy art projects. And it’s when they make friendships that’ll last a lifetime. We’re ready for another exciting summer, and we’re excited that your children will be spending it with us. Whether they want a different experience every day at our traditional summer day camp, want to focus on a specialty or sport, or both, The YMCA of Greenville has a great summer day camp experience ready!
