We are excited to see your child this summer! We are still planning to begin summer camp on June 8 at the Brooks Family YMCA. With public school locations unavailable this summer, we will not be holding camp in Crozet or Greene County. We will communicate directly with affected camp parents about this change.
We are planning to put as many safety precautions in place as possible this summer, including huddles of no more than 10 people (children + counselor), additional cleaning/disinfecting procedures, social distancing measures, and as much time outside as possible. YMCA summer camp parents will receive a handbook outlining these and additional details about camp this summer.
If you have additional questions about summer camp, please reach out to us at brookssummerdaycamp@piedmontymca.org.
Please note: some details below will change this summer due to COVID-19.
With each themed week packed with enrichment activities, swimming, field trips, guest speakers, and more, we will play our way through the Best Summer Ever.
Campers will experience a balance of spending time outside enjoying trails throughout McIntire Park, swimming daily, playing on the playground, playing games, and doing enrichment activities within the YMCA.
Items to bring: water bottle, sunscreen, bathing suit, towel, lunch, and two snacks. Please label all items.

You can add swim lessons to any week of camp. These are in addition to the swimming that is part of regular camp.
You can add a sports clinic to your week of camp. Available sports camp sessions are listed below.
Balances are due by 6pm the Wednesday prior to the week of camp the child will be attending. If the balance isn't paid, it will be drafted from a credit card or bank account that the parent/guardian provides us with at the time of registration. (A late fee will be applied.)
Although there is no hard deadline to apply for financial assistance, we ask for a minimum of 5 business days for us to review financial assistance applications. Applications must be reviewed, in good order, and payment received before the child may attend camp.
Please allow 5 business days for your financial assistance application to be reviewed. Please submit as soon as you think you are interested in summer camp.
Please make sure to complete ALL THREE of the following steps:
