Lots of stuff to do outside but wish they did more activities inside

The swim lessons. The fact that she comes home dirty, tired and happy. :)

My son enjoyed all the sports 🏀 n multiple weeks! Flag football, soccer and dodgeball were his favorites. Just having fun swimming and playing games! Definitely will be back next year!

I like the variety of activities offered.

I like that the kids are able to get in the pool daily and receive lessons. My daughter has fun and comes home showing me new dances and activities that she's learned. She's also enjoyed making new friends and being able to see them in the morning.

My 6 year old daughter had a blast. She came home exhausted every day because of all the activities. The hours for drop off and pick up are flexible. It would be cool to have an itinerary or photos or something so we can have a peek inside of what they do everyday. Thank you to all the camp staff for everything they do for our children. My daughter looks forward to going next summer

My kids love it and it’s their first year at a camp. They live the counselors and how much they have learned!

At YMCA, there is a tone of activities, and it is a wonderful welcoming community.
We love YMCA!

My son loves it!

We love that our son has such an opportunity to be active and learn things that are disguised as fun! The counselors are wonderful and ensure they stay safe.

Variety of weeks

Our daughter, Morgan loves camp and wakes up excited everyday to go.

Swimming and camp

This program is so fun for the kids. It has a little bit of everything daily and keeps the kids occupied. A lot has to do with the Councilors and their enthusiasm. Massive thanks to all your team, to Jenae that was asked to put my son with his friends which made the whole experience of him being at camp 1000 fold better for everyone. My kid comes home tired, happy and full of stories, and to me that's what summer is for! Thank you again for making this week commemorable and making him wanting to come back.

After-school and summer camp

The Directors and people in charge are terrific. My children have enjoyed their camp experiences.

I really like how organized the program runs. From the drop off and pick up to safety of the children. The counselors are very kind and polite. My daughter is having a wonderful time. Everyday she shares how much fun she's having and how many friends she has made.

Activities are planned well. My daughter was able to improve her swim skills and we received swim reports. The camp counselors are great and caring. They went above and beyond to make my daughter feel welcome and helped her make friends.

Teamwork taught
Swimming lessons built in to days
Lots of outside time

Thank you to all the ladies and gentlemen for taking great care of our daughters!

Our kids have really enjoyed their time at the Y summer camp! The counselors are great!

Quality of educational activities, friendly staff

My children had a lovely time and got really attached to the teachers/counselors.

There are lots of programs available and the activities seem to have the kids in mind.

Our girls had fun trying out new sports! A good way to get the kids outside and exercising when their parents are working. YMCA staff was very caring and attentive as always!

The whole Shady Grove team has cared for my son well over camp season and before that in preschool. My boy comes home happy, with so many things to talk about, and loves his teachers.

Love how structured the program is and how communicative the teachers are. My kids have had a lot of fun. All the arts and crafts projects are really cute. The weekly themes are fun too. Just a great program overall and I’m glad we found it. We’ll be back next summer for sure.

There is a lot of variety in programs and activities. Programs are well managed and price is reasonable.

My daughter loves it! She comes home full of new ideas and enjoys meeting new friends.

I love that they are predominantly outdoors and that the counselors seem really invested in the kids. My son loves his counselors. He connects with them very well.
