Yardville Day Camp * June 25 - August 24, 2012

 

 

 

In our 54th year of operation, our CYO Day Camp, which is located on a beautifully maintained 23-acre wooded site on Yardville-Allentown Road in Yardville, New Jersey, is better than ever! Each year our CYO Day Camp Staff strives to help each camper to enjoy a healthy, happy summer while developing in body, mind, and spirit. The CYO is proud that our Day Camp is accredited by the American Camp Association, a prestigious honor, and the gold seal in the camping industry.  The CYO Day Camp is accredited through the ACA until August 31, 2013.

 

We work to instill values such as respect (for self and others), fair play, sharing and cooperation. We stress safety first! Rules for acceptance and participation in the program are the same for everyone regardless to race, handicap, gender, color, religion or national origin.
