Member Testimonials
My daughter is very happy and has enjoyed the camp so much. I have no words to thank you for the love, patience, and dedication with which you care for the children. The love you put into everything you do is truly evident, and it shows in each child’s happiness. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your care and for making this experience such a beautiful memory for my daughter.
My daughter loves the crafts.
I appreciate the variety and a themed week. The counselors are very caring as well.
My granddaughter loves Bedford day camp! This is her 2nd summer there with many more to come!!
My kids reported all the teachers as nice and they enjoyed the zoo field trip.
Yes
My great grandson is having a ball. Meeting new friends, playing games, and swimming.
I like that I can drop my child off for the summer program and pick her back up with her telling me how much of a wonderful time she had, and to know the security (sign in, sign out) of the ymca is secure.
Welcoming and diverse environment. Camp leaders are great; staff are variable but mostly good.
My child likes to swim so it's great you have swim days. I like the different camp weeks. It gives the kids variety. I like that the kids are fed lunch so I don't have to worry about packing one every morning. I like the camp hours, safety protocols, and flexibility with drop off and pick up. I like the Band App for communicating to parents what the kids are doing, although I haven't seen any photos lately.
There is a nice variety of activities.
This camp is great, they keep kids engaged with games, crafts, and fun activities!
I like the fact that my child was very social with other students in camp & they made activities everyday . He really enjoyed being at the camp. He’s never been to a YMCA camp, and we moved from MS in May & it has been the best experience thus far .
The crafts and activities were very engaging
My child came home with different activities and crafts daily. For example, he learned about hop scotch and dodge ball and also made slip and a link snake. He had so much fun!
I loved the YMCA summer program. They provided fun and entertainment each week. The field trips were amazing and my son loved going every single day.
Great program!!! Camp counselors made it so fun. Easy check in and check out - great communication
Affordable price, friendly staff and lots of activities for the kids.
I like that they have different age groups for children. The curriculum that they have is good from frog street for the kids to be learning. But the only thing that I would change would be to at least give the part time crew a 30 minutes break. Also for the kids to have a indoor play place when it gets super hot and cold outside.
My child enjoys everyday and is excited to come in each week.
My children enjoyed the variety of activities and field trips in addition to swimming 2 days per week.
Miracle was so happy with her camp experiences this summer. Thank you for making her summer better.
The programs keep the children active and moving
My son loves the onsite and offsite field trips and the camp games. I remember some of the counselors saying at orientation that they were excited to do art projects with the kids, but it doesn't seem like my son has brought home many projects. I really appreciate that we don't have to pay extra for before/after care and that food is provided Monday-Thursday. I wasn't expecting that. I also appreciate the safety of the check-in and check-out process.
the kids had great time and seemed to be productively occupied
The summer program was awesome I just wish it was more affordable.
I’ve been a member before and I found out about the programs then.
My daughter enjoys the activities and loves going on field trips. It allows her to gain great experience and new friends. The staff is great as well!
My kids come home very happy and satisfied with the daily activities. I also love the staff because they are very transparent and immediately notifies me if something happens no matter how minor it may seem. It seems like the kids are closer in the small community and I will definitely return for next year’s summer camp.

Variety of options and the kids are always doing something
