Camp Indian Valley Day Camps

Swimming, fun, and friends is what Camp Indian Valley is all about. At Camp Indian Valley campers have a great camp experience right at the Indian Valley YMCA. Our caring and well trained counselors lead campers through fun activities such as games, arts and crafts, and science and nature! Campers also get to swim every day in the Vernon town pool! Each session campers will celebrate a theme day and will have a special event such as a moonbounce, a magic show or musical entertainment! Campers are broken down in to two separate groups based on age.

Nipmunks

For campers entering K – 2nd Grade

Day Camp is a whole new experience for younger campers! Nipmunk campers will be introduced to the adventure of camp while being provided with the special attention our younger campers need. All activities are designed with the interest of your younger camper in mind.

Chippewas

For campers entering grade 3 – 6

Chippewa campers enjoy choosing among a variety of age appropriate and fun activities. Activities are more challenging to capture the interest of our older campers. Campers will have the opportunity to learn new skills and create many friendships and memories.
