Member Testimonials
I love that the kids stay active, still learning and not doing the same thing everyday.
It’s been a blessing! I am so thankful he was able to have something to look forward to each day instead of sitting around the house doing much of nothing. I am looking forward to him returning next year after his summer school ends. Thank you to all the staff including the lady who is at the office who called several times to tell me there was a spot open for him because he was on the waitlist.
Our son loves camp! He has met great friends, and stayed active all summer. We love the different activities each day and week that the kids get to enjoy.
We had a great experience at the Heartland location summer day camp this summer. Ms. Amy and Ms. Kelsey were GREAT! The communication exceeded our expectations.
The hours and flexibility. Also, the counselors were fantastic!
Good variety of activities. The counselors seem fantastic!
The YMCA had a great program for my son. He always came home with a lot of stories to tell about how much fun he had.
Field trips, swimming, friendly staff
This was our first experience with YMCA and it was truly fantastic! The staff was so warm and friendly, and my son loved it. It felt great to know that he was excited to go each day and was building meaningful relationships with adults and kids alike. I couldn’t recommend it more!
Drop off and pick up is quick, snacks are provided, and it was engaging for my child.
Great! My child loves it.
There were a lot more activities this year, which made it feel more like a real summer camp rather than just an extension of the before and after care program that he attends during the year. Counselors are all nice and he seemed to have a lot of fun.
It was well-organized and there was excellent communication with parents. My son always had a great week, and there was so much variety that he always looked forward to going.
The staff has been very friendly and helpful as this is our first year and we had lots of questions. My daughter loves getting to explore new places around the city on field trip days and getting some swim time in! The location is great for us and the flexibly to cancel spots that we didn’t need is so fantastic!
My son enjoyed the camp and was very happy with all the activities. Thank you for the wonderful care.
My son enjoys his camp time and loves his counselors. He has had a great time with the swim days and all the field trips. He especially loved the alpaca farm and Top Golf! Bubble party was amazing! Great activities, counselors, and the price is great. Locations can be tricky, if you don't get the one that is convenient.
It was very convenient for our schedules. Our daughter really enjoyed being with her friends and trying new activities. There was never a day when she said she had a bad day.
Nice and quiet
I appreciated the variety of activities planned for the kids each week. The leadership for the program was phenomenal, and I felt like I could trust my kid to be treated with respect in the environment they created. This was an excellent way for my kid to get a break from school, have some structure, and engage socially with their peers. I'm so grateful for the North Kansas City YMCA Day Camp being able to facilitate my work schedule and provide excellent care for my kid. Thank you so much!
The camp counselors have made my son’s summer great! He was hesitant at first but got into the routine of camp & made a lot of new friends & loves it. He’s bummed it’s over! He came home exhausted every day so he was kept busy all day. They took good care of him and had his best intentions at heart. We can’t wait to sign him up for it next summer!
The staff was very inviting and attentive.
It was a great experience for my son. He was living his best life this summer!
It’s been wonderful!!! Every staff member has been friendly, caring and attentive!
My daughter is happy and has lots of fun, the field trips are her favorite. I feel she is safe and the staff really cares for the children. We love Mr.Green, really great price and lots of schools to choose from.
My child really enjoyed the field trips, water days and LOVED the Kona Ice days. Teachers were great with communicating what was happening during the upcoming week.
The camp leaders and directors are great with the kids.
Lots of fun activities all summer long
The daily activities and field trips. It was well organized.
The staff was incredible and they were consistent. Great communication and good field trips.

This was our first time at the camp, and we loved it! Our 6yo had such a great time, made new friends and learned a lot. I highly recommend the Y Camp.
