Discovery Camp offers a diverse range of weekly science themes combined with physical games and outdoor play, ensuring a dynamic and engaging summer experience focused on holistic youth development.
YMCA Discovery Camp offers weekly themed sessions where campers entering 1st to 5th grades engage in enrichment experiences, physical games, and outdoor play. Each week introduces a new theme, such as Extreme Earth, Grossology, Ocean Odyssey, Maker Mania, Weather Wizards, Space Explorers, Arctic Adventures, Secret Agent Academy, and Glow Lab. Through hands-on experiments and activities, campers explore scientific concepts, unleash creativity, develop problem-solving skills, and learn about the natural world. The camp aims to foster independence, critical thinking, social-emotional skills, and a healthy living mindset in a supportive and engaging environment. Campers will make new friends and build confidence through collaborative activities and team-building games.
A typical day at Discovery Camp includes an opening assembly with icebreakers and silly camp songs, followed by large group games and team-building activities. Campers then participate in enrichment activities focused on the weekly theme, have lunch and social time, and engage in more physical games and outdoor play.
This camp is ideal for elementary school-aged children (grades 1-5) who enjoy hands-on learning, science, outdoor activities, and making new friends in a fun and supportive environment.
