The YMCA of Austin Overview
Children from toddlers to teenagers are welcome to participate in YMCA summer activities in Austin. Different camps provide different activities and skills for specific ages, from those as young as six weeks up to 13.
The Kinder Camp offers dramatic play, creative expression, science, and math. The specialty camps have different themes, like cooking, art, science, superheroes, magical creatures, and more. If your child participates in a specialty camp, they can swim in the YMCA pool once a week and enjoy a weekly field trip. Camp Moody teaches survival skills, archery, hiking, fishing, and more in the Texas outdoors of Onion Creek. The various camps overlap in some ways. For instance, Camp Moody teaches outdoor skills, but campers also spend time in the art studio for a change of scenery.
The camps run from late May through early August, with most day camps starting at 7:15 am and ending at 6:30 pm. With the diversity of activities in each camp, not all activities occur at the YMCA. For specialty camps or outdoor activities, your child's camp might place at the local school district.
