Y Day Camps

At the Island of Hawaii YMCA whenever school is out, the camp at the Y is in!

It’s more important than ever that children have a safe enriching environment for learning, both in and out of school. The YMCA's Day Camp program allows children to continue their social, emotional and physical growth when school is out. Visit the Day Camp page more information on how to register or call us at 808-935-3721.
