It is finally summer time at the YMCA and that means that it is finally time for summer camps! YMCA summer camps are where kids go to gain confidence, have fun and stay out of trouble all summer long. YMCA summer camps are giving kids the best summer ever all across the globe.

For example, in Panama, the YMCA Verano Feliz (Happy Summer) program offers sports, classes and arts to underserved children in the Panama City community. Attending these camps keeps them away from the pressures of gangs and drugs that they may face on the streets of the city.

In addition to giving kids the best summer ever through exciting summer camps, the Y is also focused on helping teens grow into leaders this summer. Through outdoor leadership programs, the Y is helping a number of teens from diverse backgrounds to develop their talents and cultivate their innate leadership skills. They focus of emphasizing courage through achievement, emotional intelligence through relationships and condfidence through a sense of belonging.
