Summer Day Camp
Located adjacent to Outwater Park, the YWCA offers a nine-week summer program. YWCA Camp staff has created weekly integrated themes which incorporate arts & crafts, recreational and instructional swimming, and hands-on activities that revolve around the theme of the week. Friday field trips are part of the weekly fun. Children must be five years old by July 1st to register.  The YWCA, in conjunction with its Carolyn’s House program, also offers an eight-week summer day camp in Niagara Falls at Niagara Street Elementary School.
