Before and After Camp Care

Care is available to those parents that need coverage for their child before camp starts in the mornings, and after it ends in the afternoon. Morning care begins at 7am, and afternoon care ends at 7pm. Both programs are held at the YMCA Jefferson Avenue location - except for the Drama and Environmental Camps, which are held at their campsites. Healthy snacks are provided and campers will be engaged in activities such as sports, arts & crafts, enrichment programs and more.

SoMapY, both Y Knots and all three of the Drama camps are accredited by the American Camping Association and licensed by the State of New Jersey.
