Summer Day Camp
WELCOME TO SUMMER DAY CAMP 2019
IT’S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR… SUMMER!
When kids experience Y Camp, they experience something new every day. Like the power of a positive mentor, the confidence that comes from trying (and succeeding!), and the importance of healthy, long-lasting friendships. Of course, they don’t know this – they just think they’re having a whole lot of fun!
From water activities and sports to creative arts, each day is packed with age-appropriate activities, new friends and personal growth. In addition to traditional and specialty camp activities, we are uniquely devoted to physical activity, water safety and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics) education.

Announcing….The New Tennis Coaches at YMCA Bethesda-Chevy Chase!
The YMCA of Metropolitan Washington is proud to announce that the 4 Star Tennis Academy will serve tennis to youth and adults at the YMCA Bethesda-Chevy Chase beginning in June! The 4 Star Tennis Academy was founded by Bob Pass at the Four Seasons Tennis Club in 1973. In 2010, the organization expanded into Maryland at The Bullis School. So far, over 400 of 4 Star’s graduates have gone on to play in college (including 23 for the University of Virginia and 36 for Ivy League Universities) and several have competed on the pro tour (including in the Grand Slam events).
