By MacKID Bridgewater- Danielle Romano & East Bridgewater YMCA Team May 2, 2024

School is almost out for the summer. Do you know how you are keeping your kids busy? Old Colony YMCA East Bridgewater Branch has the best options for the whole family ages 4-15 years old! You can choose 1 to 10 weeks of camp, each with different themes. The YMCA offers camp from 9 o’clock to 4 o’clock with the option to have extended care for morning or evening. Your kids will create the best friendships and new skills that they will talk about forever. The YMCA Camp’s mission is to provide all children with a welcoming environment where they can be themselves.

When packing for camp, your child will need a non-perishable bag lunch & snacks or look into the camps’ lunch program, water bottle (with water), bathing suit and towel, sunscreen, and bug spray. To help with communication, the YMCA will be using ClassDojo. They will be able to share photos and update you on events throughout the summer. Simple planning that will help keep your summer as stress free as possible!

Programs to sign up for:

  • Zip Line & Rope Course: work on problem-solving and leadership skills as they learn how to maneuver the low and highs of cables, ropes, and obstacles. 
  • Swimming & Swim lessons: each camper gets to utilize both the indoor and outdoor pool with free swim time and aquatic games. Their safety is a high priority and each camper will be instructed on boat and swim safety. Swim Lessons are now included in your campers registration.
