The YMCA Camps (Ockanickon for Boys, Matollionequay for Girls and Lake Stockwell Day Camp) will provide your child with a top quality program in a safe, supportive environment led by adult role models. Through the single gender nature of our overnight camps, our campers experience something different and uniquely supportive. Boys interact with men who are strong and compassionate, assertive and attentive. Girls interact with women who are tenacious and tender, confident and caring. Boys and girls can be themselves and reenter the world with renewed confidence and empathy. In our co-ed day camp, boys and girls see balanced role models who prepare campers for everyday living, offer diverse points of view and allow campers to participate on an equal footing.

Our YMCA affiliation means we include the Y’s 4 core values in every aspect of our programming, demonstrating the importance of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility. Through safety inspections, ACA accreditation, staff training and background checks we strive to ensure the safety and well-being of every child. Our experienced counselors and programming promote friendships, positive self-esteem, healthy development and encourage individuality and independence. Our variety of fun, positive camp experiences will impact your child for a lifetime.

Our professional staff provide campers with a positive environment, as well as fun, safe and age-appropriate activities that aim to foster new relationships, build self-confidence and teach new skills. Inclusion, sportsmanship and learning to treat others with caring, honesty and respect are key values that we model for campers.

Like the School for Children, The Bank Street Summer Camp fosters emotional, physical and ethical growth within campers, by using educational professionals to help them develop their own personalities and individual voices through love of play, creativity and collaboration.

We see in Camp the opportunity to educate and build a better society. Camp celebrates the individual child, creating a positive camp culture and zest for living that encourages exploration and problem solving. This positive environment is also reflected through the vast diversity of camp, including ethnicity, family structure, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation and learning styles.
