Winter Break Camp | Ages 5-12

Make your child’s winter break unforgettable at the Southwest Family YMCA! Our Winter Break Camp, for kids ages 5-12, is packed with fun, adventure, and creativity; there’s never a dull moment! Plus, our campers will splash into fun with swimming in our pool! Camp runs from 8:30am to 4:30pm, but for your convenience, we offer early drop-off at 7am and late pick-up until 6pm. All this excitement at an unbeatable price! 

Don’t let your child miss out on the best break ever!
