TEEN SUMMER CAMP

Teenagers, regardless of background, face choices that can positively or negatively influence their lives. The Y helps teens and their families to reach new heights and is committed to programs that offer character development, citizenship, leadership and service.

Teen Camp All-A-Days! 

This summer experience gives teens the opportunity to revisit all the national, international, and school holidays through fun, innovative, and engaging weekly themes. Each week teens will revisit a fun holiday with an added fun twist involving sports challenges, STEM activities, art, photography and film, swimming, and community partners and special guest to help develop a healthy mind, body, and spirit.

  • In-House Field Trips offered throughout summer
  • Outdoor Field Trip to Collin County Adventure Camp (July 29th-30th)

Our goal is for teens to learn to work together, learn new skills, gain better decision making and conflict resolution skills, while discovering something new about themselves.
