Best for swim + traditional camp
Prospect Park YMCA
The Prospect Park YMCA runs a full-day camp that pairs traditional day-camp activities with in-house swim, with a pool on site. It's backed by the YMCA's safety infrastructure and a long run at the Park Slope Armory. The 2026 permit is mid-renewal and exact session dates aren't posted yet, so call to pin down the weeks, and register early.
