Day Camps at the YMCA at O.P. Schnabel Park


Holiday Camps

During the holidays (Thanksgiving,Winter Break, Spring Break) are you wondering where your children will go while they are out of school?  The YMCA of Greater San Antonio provides a nurturing and caring environment for all. Holiday camp is a fun and happy place for your children to be during the day when school is out. Campers will enjoy fun activities, field trips, creative art projects, group games, and much more.

Specialty Camps

Our summer specialty camps provide fun activities, games and more. Specialty camps typically do not run every day of the week, and they end earlier than our summer day camps . These camps are perfect for families who are looking for fun activities for their children during the summer but do not require all-day care. Specialty Camps are held at the YMCA at O.P. Schnabel Park facility unless otherwise posted. 

Click HERE  to view current available offerings and register for Specialty Camps online.

Summer Day Camp

Summer Day Camp offers benefits similar to traditional camp—new experiences, physical activity and character development—but allows campers to return home each afternoon.  Y Day Camp boasts weekly field trips and age-appropriate activities designed to help children, ages 5 to 13, develop self-confidence and personal empowerment.  Registration for day camp is available for the entire summer, for the weeks needed, or even for a day.

Family Events
Family Events at O.P. Schnabel Park


FAMILY EVENTS

The Y has always been a place where families come together to have a good time; participate in a variety of fun activities; share, communicate and strengthen their relationships; and meet other families. Family Events are usually scheduled for a weekend evening and can be either structured or free-flowing. Activities include mixers, games, arts and crafts, family fitness, games, volunteer opportunities and family discussions over refreshments. Example events include Fall Festivals, Cookies with Santa, Healthy Kids' Day and more!

FitPath

FitPath

FitPath

WHAT IT IS

FitPath is a FREE program for all Y members designed to help you reach your wellness goals. On your initial appointment, a YMCA Wellness Coach will discuss your goals, review all the options available to you, set you up on our YMCA SATX mobile app, and help create a program tailored to your wellness journey. Follow up appointments will be available to help ensure you stay on track and are achieving your goals.


WHAT IT’S NOT

FitPath is not a high-pressure sales pitch for personal training or a medical appointment where you’ll be poked and prodded. You don’t have to worry about being uncomfortable or embarrassed; you won’t be asked to do anything you don’t want to do.


WHO SHOULD ATTEND

Everyone! Whether you’re new to exercise or in tip-top shape, FitPath is designed to help everyone, whatever your goals, exercise or activity preferences may be. Whether you want to lift weights, take classes, swim, play sports or have some other interests in mind, we want to make sure we do our part in helping you get started on the right path.


WHY IT’S IMPORTANT

Members who meet with a Wellness Coach within their first two weeks of joining are 6X more likely to achieve their goals. Let’s make sure you're one of them!

The Y is the starting point for many youth to learn about becoming and staying active, and developing healthy habits they’ll carry with them throughout their lives. The benefits gained through early exposure to fitness are far greater than just physical health.


HOW DO I SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT?

If you are already a member simply schedule a time for an orientation and a staff person will walk you through the proper use of the equipment. Once registered, you will be on your way to monitoring your workouts!


Already enrolled? Click Here to log your workout and get feedback!

  READY, SET, HERE WE GO!

 WHAT YOU SHOULD EXPECT

  Your one-on-one appointment will include:

  • Us learning a bit about you

  • Establishing short, medium & long-term goals

  • An introduction to our online nutrition tool

  • An overview of how to use our FREE YMCA SATX mobile app

  • Developing a customized and easy-to-follow plan


BUT WAIT... THERE'S MORE

1-Week Guest Pass Upon completing your FIRST appointment, we'll provide you with a week-long guest pass for you to share with a guest visiting from out of town, friends or family–no strings attached.
