The YMCA is known for having stellar summer camps, and Virginia's Camp Silver Beach is no exception.
One-week sessions are available for young campers, and two to three-week sessions are offered to older children and teenagers. Teens can also enroll in their Expedition Camp, where they stay in a tent, hike the Blue Ridge Mountains, and learn how to survive in the great outdoors.
Situated on the breathtaking Chesapeake Bay shoreline, Camp Silver Beach offers great water sports opportunities. Kids can spend their days on the water on a banana boat, kayak, sailboat, or slide down a massive water slide. Those who want to remain on dry land can play beach games, zipline, soccer, dance, skateboard, and much more.
Other activities include archery, basketball, drama classes, photography, and tennis. As you can see, there are plenty of things to do for children ages 8-16. There are one-week, two-week, and three-week options.
