School Break Camps
When school is out, YMCA of Three Rivers Camps are a great way to keep your children entertained.
We offer a variety of school break camps throughout the year. At school break camps, campers have the chance to get out in nature where they’re introduced to new experiences and can gain new skills. Plus, you get the peace of mind of knowing that they’re having fun.
