About Camp Melstone

WELCOME TO CAMP!

Summer is our favorite season at the Y. We love to see all of our campers get up, out, and explore. The YMCA of Metro North Summer Camps encourages young people to achieve more, build relationships with peers and feel a sense of belonging through fun and enriching experiences.

YMCA of Metro North Summer Camps are seasonal day camp programs for girls and boys ages four to fifteen. At Camp, children make friends, discover their passions, explore creativity and develop skills through a wide range of weekly activities. The YMCA helps them develop strong friendships and make memories that last a lifetime.

A Typical Day…

Sports, games, arts and crafts, social responsibility, and fun are all on-site at the Melrose Family YMCA! Camp begins with a morning assembly, a spirited meeting to get campers excited for the day! Here we sing songs and make special announcements. Campers move on to many activities, both indoor and outdoor; from swimming, gym games, creative arts, nature, adventure, and more. Ages 4-6 will partake in the fun and exciting adventure days each week. Field trips are held each week for ages 7-13 where campers will be offered an exciting day trip away from camp.
