In 1885 the YMCA helped to invent summer camp to provide children with positive and fun experiences that build confidence and new friendships. YMCA camp staff have served as positive role models for generations of campers and helped build future leaders. The centerpiece of YMCA camps are activities that excite and engage your child, giving them a summer filled with fun and adventure. Whether learning a new sport, discovering arts and culture or exploring the best of New York City, YMCA Summer Camps offer an opportunity to build wonderful lifelong memories and a feeling of community that will last beyond the summer. Each of our camps is accredited by the American Camping Association (ACA) and our staff go through rigorous training to ensure the safety and positive experience of each child.
PROGRAMS Our YMCA camps have something unique to offer for every age group from our Early Childhood to Outdoor Adventure to Counselor-In-Training Camps. Our goal is to meet your child’s developmental needs and provide a foundation for continued learning during the summer months. Alongside sports, swimming and arts programs, the YMCA offers academic enrichment that is infused throughout the camp day. These programs include summer reading, journal writing and science activities. Each session you will be given a schedule of activities so you can follow your child’s course of learning and adventure over the summer.
OUR CAMP LOCATIONS Outdoor Adventure Day Camp operates out of Pouch Camp, located at 1465 Manor Road, Staten Island, NY 10314.

FAMILY CAMP Winter 2016 February 12 - 15 Summer 2016 September 2 - 5 Strengthen family bonds and have fun at our all-inclusive Winter or Summer Family Camps. Enjoy a weekend with sports, crafts, and special themed activities. When winter gives us snow, XC-skiing, snow-shoeing, and snow-tubing are always family favorites. In the summer, have fun in the sun on our beautiful beaches where families can swim, tube, and water-ski.
New York YMCA Camp realizes that families have differing abilities to pay, so we offer a 3-tier pricing program. This is strictly an honor system; select the fee you feel is appropriate to what you can pay. The program is voluntary, and in no way influences the experience children receive. Tier 1 – Is the actual cost of camp for a child to participate Tier 2 – Is our partially subsidized fee for temporary or minor financial need Tier 3 – Is our heavily subsidized fee for those in need of more financial assistance *We also offer need-based financial assistance.
