The Door County YMCA is gearing up for summer with registration now open for its 2026 “Best Summer Ever” youth camps at both the Sturgeon Bay Program Center and the Jackie and Steve Kane Center in Fish Creek.
The YMCA offers three primary camp options to serve a wide range of ages, interests, and family schedules throughout the county.
Full Day Camp at the Sturgeon Bay campus is designed for children ages four through entering sixth grade. Campers enjoy a traditional day-camp experience with games, creative activities, educational enrichment, and swim lessons. Camps run weekdays from June 8 through August 21, with free extended care available before and after camp hours.
Camp in the Park, held at Otumba Park in Sturgeon Bay, is a half-day program running from 9 a.m. to noon. Offered in three sessions, the camp features swimming, outdoor games, and field trips to local businesses and downtown. Costs are $65 for members and $85 for community participants.
At the Kane Center in Fish Creek, the Trekkers Day Camp is located across from Peninsula State Park. This full-day camp runs Monday through Friday from June 8 through August 14. Weekly rates are $195 for members and $275 for community participants, with half-day and daily options also available.
“Our summer camps are always in high demand and fill up very quickly,” said Paul Briney, Youth and Sports Program Executive at the Sturgeon Bay YMCA. “Having these different camps, with different hours, provides options for the community depending on the family schedule. There is a little bit of something for everybody.”
Registration is open online through the Door County YMCA website, and families are encouraged to sign up early as space is limited.
