Young people from across Gedling borough are being given the chance to sharpen their skills in skateboarding, video game design, basketball, photography and drama at a new holiday camp taking place this summer.
YMCA Camp Williams is being held at Nottingham Emmanuel School in West Bridgford over the summer break and is the latest addition to the Nottinghamshire YMCA’s school holiday activity programme.
Organisers of the camp are putting on transport from Arnold to ensure that children from across the borough don’t miss out on taking part in the wide range of activities on offer
Children who sign up to Camp Williams will all take part in camp rallys, sports, swimming, games and crafts, but those aged eight or over can also sign up for a series of skill clinics on offer too.
Skills clinics running this summer include archery, basketball, video game design, film & photography, drama, music, football and paddle sports.
Gavin Barker, outdoor education and adventure services manager for Nottinghamshire YMCA said: “We’ve chosen these skills clinics so that kids can choose things that they really want to get involved with – there’s something for everyone.
“We get a lot of feedback from parents who appreciate that we don’t simply offer sports based activities like at a lot of other holiday clubs. We’re excited to offer something that’s actually really cool.”
The camp will run during week days from July 25 until September 2. You can book at nottsymca.com/daycamps or call the team on 0115 711 7006.
