They are very nice and very helpful. They do the right stuff and they have fun just like the kids.

The Beast Boat Ride. It went really fast, we listened to music, got wet and got to see the Statue of Liberty. I also got to sit next to my best friend.

Would you tell other kids they should go to the Rye Y Camp?

Yes, because its super fun and the YMCA rules!

The field trips, all of them but mostly Splashdown Beach.

If you had water slides everyday and story time.
