Summer Day Camp

For Campers 5 – 14 years old

A DAY AT Y CITY CAMP IS ALWAYS A HAPPY DAY!

The cornerstone of daily camp life is supervised FUN! Our superstar staff keep our campers engaged the entire day. Y City Camp is rooted in the values of Growth, Citizenship, Leadership, and Klal Yisrael (which in this case best translates to the entirety of the Jewish People). These values will inspire the many activities that our campers will experience, be it in our pool, in the gym, in creative arts, in the park, and even in between activities.
Throughout the Ben Weider JCC, in Mackenzie Park across the street and on field trips around Montreal, each camper will surely have stories to share around the supper table. Y City Camp is an inclusive, nurturing, and inspiring environment where each child will develop their skills and confidence while gaining a real sense of community and belonging.
With our Israel theme, don’t be surprised if your child comes home swimming like Anastasia Gorbenko, creating like Hanoch Piven, singing like Eden Alene, and shooting hoops like Omri Casspi. Day camp will never be the same again!
