WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT:

This all day camp runs from 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM.
Discovery Camp is designed for first time campers who have completed or are eligible for Kindergarten.
Your camper will be excited about new experiences while having the comfort of a consistent routine.
Weekly activities include arts, crafts, indoor/outdoor games, swimming, sports and STEM activities.
Discovery Camp will enjoy field trips on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays to local parks, beaches, and other favorite destinations.
All campers must be checked in by Y Camp Staff.
Drop-off is at the Penobscot Bay YMCA from 9:00 - 9:15 AM. Campers depart on the bus at 9:15 AM.
Pick-up is at the Penobscot Bay YMCA from 3:45 - 4:00 PM.
Parents wishing to drop-off or pick-up their campers at LCS on Mondays or Tuesdays may arrive after 10:00 AM for drop off and must pick up prior to 3:00 PM.
Camp Counselors are certified in First Aid, CPR & AEDs with some being Red Cross Certified Lifeguards. Our staff have also been trained on bullying prevention.
A low camper-to-staff ratio makes our camp the perfect choice for parents who need a fun, safe place for their children during summer break with safety being their #1 priority.
