School Year and One Day Camps

A Fun Way to Spend the Day

YMCA of Greater San Francisco’s School-Year Holiday Camps provide a safe and welcoming environment for youth to engage in during school breaks. Our CPR- and First Aid-certified Youth Development staff lead fun, safe activities that include cooking, arts and crafts, STEAM projects, physical activities, and more! We provide camps during winter and spring break and selected school holidays throughout the school year.

Financial Assistance & Third-Party Billing

We accept 3rd-party billing, such as Children’s Council, Marin Childcare Council, or 4Cs. Before you can enroll your student, you must submit a Certificate/Contract of child services provided by your caseworker to [email protected]. Please note that you may be responsible for a portion of the monthly dues. Please contact your caseworker to let them know which program you’d like to register for.
