YMCA of the Sierra summer camp opens each day at 6:30am and ends promptly every evening at 6:30pm. We ask that all campers are dropped off by 9:00am each morning, to ensure that we have a cmomplete count of our campers for activities each day. Most of our daily activities run until 4:30pm, so we encourage you to pick your child up after 4:30pm. We encourage campers to bring bathing suit, towel, camp shirt (every day!!!), socks, closed-toe shoes, nutritious lunch, and water bottle. Please leave games, game boys, CD players, cell phones and all other valuables at home. The YMCA of the Sierra will not be responsible for any lost/stolen or damaged valuables. It is also a good idea to label everything your child brings to camp includingtheir camp shirt. Please note that summer camp officially begins on Monday June 11th, and we will be closed on Wednesday July 4th.
