Find Your Fun. Find Your Y.

The YMCA of Greensboro has many Summer Camp options for your kids to engage in physical activity, explore their talents, make new friends and try new things at our facilities throughout Greensboro, NC, Jamestown, Eden and Reidsville.

Y camps feature fun, engaging, character-building activities like field trips, art projects, STEM games, sports, cooking, swimming and more. Your child will have an amazing experience and build lifelong connections at any of our YMCA camp options - all in a safe, inclusive and nurturing environment.

Ages: Rising 1st Grade (Must have turned 5 years old by August 31, 2022)

Safety comes first at YMCA camp, ensuring your child is provided a high-quality camp experience:
• Our staff is certified in CPR and First Aid and must pass a background check and drug screen.
• We offer a 1:10 leader-to-camper ratio, which means more meaningful interaction with your child.
• Pre-summer staff trainings on child safety, healthy discipline, positive reinforcement, character development, games, songs and child abuse prevention ensure the best possible experience for your camper!

Be Prepared: Each camper will need to bring a bagged lunch to camp Monday-Friday! Please do not pack food that requires heating or refrigeration. Swim suit and towel are required for swimming. Other recommendations include: sun block (applied before arriving to camp), a labeled and refillable water bottle, and cool and comfortable clothing.

Dress Code: Campers should come dressed to be active. Tennis shoes are required. Please, no sandals or open-toed shoes!

Character Development: At camp, we focus on the development of social-emotional skills which include empathy, relationship building, emotion management, personal development and responsibility. Children are taught lessons throughout the day that help them make good choices, feel confident and get along with others. We are building 21st century leaders.

COVID-19 Protocols

If a child/individual tests positive in a group, the exposed children in that group whether vaccinated or unvaccinated do not need to isolate. Children must wear a mask for 10 days after the initial exposure and be monitored closely for symptoms. It is recommended for children to be tested after 5 days. 

If a child/individual is vaccinated or unvaccinated and showing symptoms, he or she should be tested. If a child/individual tests positive for COVID, the individual must isolate for 5 days and must be symptom-free for 24 hours without the use of medication before returning. The child/individual who tested positive must wear a mask for an additional 10 days while in the program.

*Hayes-Taylor Y will follow the guideline provided by state licensing requirements. Please check with the branch.
