Summer Day Camp Volunteers

Save to Favorites

Our Summer Day Camps are designed to inspire confidence, curiosity, and friendship every single day, helping campers develop character and make memories that last. With age-specific activities tailored to each developmental stage, every camper can dive into what interests them most. Through a values-driven approach that blends fun with character-building, inclusivity, and community, the Y is dedicated to making every child’s summer unforgettable!

As a Summer Day Camp Volunteer, you’ll assist YMCA Staff in setting up and organizing activities, supervising participants, and playing fun games. Volunteers may be outdoors or standing for prolonged periods of time - if you need any accommodations, please discuss them during your volunteer interview.
