The camp combines traditional YMCA fun with focused sports, STEM, and creative activities to build skills and confidence in a welcoming community setting.
The YMCA Summer Sports & Specialty Camp at the Ketchum-Downtown YMCA offers campers a dynamic environment to explore various sports and recreational activities. Participants engage in hands-on STEM experiences, fostering curiosity and problem-solving skills. Creative activities are integrated throughout the program, encouraging imagination and self-expression. The camp is designed to build skills and confidence in a supportive setting, promoting personal growth and social development. Campers will have opportunities to participate in classic YMCA camp fun, paired with focused activities aimed at skill development.
A typical day at camp involves a devotion/huddle time, four to five activity times, lunch, two snack breaks, and a swim time. Campers move with their small group, or huddle, to different activities such as archery, arts and crafts, and field games.
This camp is best for elementary-aged children who enjoy a variety of sports, hands-on STEM activities, and creative expression in a supportive and engaging environment.
