Reimagined for the ultimate summer experience!
We are excited to announce the rebranding of our summer day camp at our Pierson Road YMCA. Camp Discovery Trails welcomes day campers, ages 6 to 12, to the Pierson Road YMCA this summer! Choose from our ten, one-week sessions filled with activities and adventures designed to foster creativity, encourage learning, promote social interaction, and build a sense of accomplishment and belonging in every child.
Campers bring their own lunches with sealed “grab-and-go” snacks to be provided each morning and afternoon.
YMCA membership is NOT required to participate.
