YMCA of Greenville Summer Day Camp
Day Camp at the YMCA of Greenville is a great place for children and teens to start finding magic in the adventure! We are excited to have your camper experience a fun-filled, exciting summer!
It is important that your child has a wonderful “first”, “second”…or “seventh” camp experience. The YMCA of Greenville’s goal is to create an atmosphere of trust and friendship so that each camper will feel happy and confident at camp. Campers’ activities include but are not limited to: assemblies, choice activities based on weekly themes, skits, stories, arts & crafts, fitness activities, relays, character development, academic enrichment and counselor huddle times.
The YMCA of Greenville camp program is progressively structured to challenge children according to their age. Camp programming is planned to give children an introduction to a wide variety of camp activities, along with providing them the opportunity for creative expression.
Summer Day Camp is offered at Caine Halter Family YMCA (Greenville), Eastside Family YMCA (Taylors), George I. Theisen Family YMCA (Travelers Rest), Judson Community Center (Greenville) and Prisma Health Family YMCA (Simpsonville).
Financial assistance is available for most camps.
Fundamental Communications is a natural environment-based therapy group consisting of a team of pediatric speech, occupational, and physical therapists. We proudly provide services in a variety of locations including schools, clinics, child care centers, and homes. Our experienced and caring professionals provide individualized treatment for the pediatric population. Our goal is to engage children in fun and meaningful therapy to help them achieve their highest potential.
Many of our therapists have summer openings for speech, occupational, and physical therapy. If you are interested in continuing with therapy throughout the summer, please call our office for availability.
Even though children need a break from the rigor of school, summer vacation offers opportunities to learn and develop in a more relaxed setting outside the structure of school. A flexible summer schedule also offers more opportunities for children and therapists to work on those challenges that they haven’t had time to address.
Children can enjoy more therapy time outside with the added benefit of natural vitamin D. Plus, playing outside can work several different therapies at once!
All of our therapists are BabyNet certified providers, so therapy is FREE through the age of 3! After that, we bill directly to your insurance for coverage.
Find out more at Fundamental Communications or call us at (864) 270-8647 extension 107.
