Bussing is available for a $100/week round trip. For a detailed schedule including times and pick-up and drop-off locations, please see our Bus Schedules page.

Campers will swim twice a week in one of our two YMCA-owned and operated outdoor pools.

As you drive into YMCA Cedar Glen Outdoor Centre, follow signs to park in the lot at right. Staff will be waiting on the large field, wearing blue shirts, and ready to greet you!

In order to be placed in the same group as a friend, campers must be in the same age group and registered in the same program. For us to efficiently track these requests, you will need to complete a form for each individual week you are making a request.

Please ensure your request is sent at least two weeks before the start of the program. We do our best to accommodate all requests, however we can not guarantee. If requests are submitted with less than two weeks before the start of the program we cannot accommodate the request. One family will submit the request for both campers. Please only submit the request for your camper and one friend.

Thank you!

Day Camp staff work between the hours of 8 am–6 pm, Monday to Friday.
Following Ontario Bill 27 and in keeping with our values, the YMCA of Greater Toronto is committed to supporting the health and well-being of employees. A Right to Disconnect policy has been initiated, effective June 2, 2022. The policy is intended to support work/life balance and staff well-being by ensuring that employees have the right to disconnect from their work outside of their scheduled hours regardless of whether they are in a centre/office or working remotely.

If you have urgent concerns after hours, you can reach out to our Contact Centre until 8 pm by calling 1-877-303-2267 or emailing register@ymcagta.org.

Although we try to keep campers' items in their backpacks, occasionally things are forgotten. Any items lost at camp are collected daily and kept in the camp office. If your camper loses an item, contact the Camp Director immediately and they will try to find it.
All lost items will only be stored onsite for one week, and then they will be donated to a local charity.
Unfortunately, the Y cannot take responsibility for lost items.
Please check your camper's possessions daily to ensure they arrive home with them.

In our overnight programs at YMCA Day Camps, we will have girls, boys and all-gender cabins. We will allow youth to pick the cabin they feel most comfortable in.

The Y understands that the term "boy" includes cisgender and transgender boys, and "girl" includes cisgender and transgender girls. We understand that gender is a spectrum. The purpose of having all-gender cabins is to ensure all campers regardless of gender identity, including but not limited to Two-Spirit, gender-queer, transgender, cisgender, and non-binary youth, can be in a space that they feel comfortable as themselves in, and can connect with others.

If there is anything you would like to communicate before the overnight, please reach out to the Camp Director.
