Best Summer Ever
Marco Y Summer Camps
Summer Day Camps at the Y share one thing: they’re about discovery. Children have the opportunity to explore nature, find new talents, try new activities, gain independence, and make lasting friendships and memories. And, of course, it’s fun too.
The Marco YMCA offers unique summer camp programs at four locations- the Marco YMCA, the Marco Island Charter Middle School, Parkside Elementary and Manatee Elementary. The Y summer camp programs have been a staple of the community for nearly 40 years. The Y’s main goal is to provide an extraordinary, nurturing and safe summer camp experience for the youth of South Collier County. Over the years, parents remark about our highly trained staff and the sense of belonging that takes place for their child at the Y each summer. So join us! We are here to foster curiosity, expand comfort zones and explore potential! Are YOU ready for the BEST SUMMER EVER!
