The Warren County YMCA in Monmouth runs Camp Meskwaki, a 10-week summer day camp for kindergarten through 6th grade that operates roughly June through early August. A typical day opens with check-in from 7:00am and morning inspiration, then outdoor activities on either side of lunch, indoor swimming from 3:00-4:00pm, snack, and reflection and pickup by 5:30pm; weeks add trips to local parks, art projects, water activities and STEM projects. Hot lunch is provided free Monday through Thursday by Monmouth's Jamieson Center, with campers bringing their own on Fridays. Families enroll for three or five days a week at member or non-member rates, with a 15% discount for additional children, and the nonprofit Y frames the camp around its character values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility.

★★★★★Kyle HuntGreat place to stay active and keep the kids active year round. Volleyball, basketball, soccer.
★★★★★Ferlin HumphreyVery friendly staff. Large pool. Gives veterans discounts.
★Churro GatoI frequent this gym every day and typically things are fine. However with it being summer there are just kids running rampant with the attendants doing nothing. I have tried to use the restroom multiple times for the past week only for these children to bang on stalls try and slide under try to open the door and they are unattended when in the restroom. I find this to be ridiculous. Take my advice people if you need to pee do it before you come
★★★★★Cadence GiddingsVery neat and clean, good selection of gym equipment. The only gym in the area to offer childcare. The 24 hr access is a plus. Lots of classes for kids and the Kidtropolis room is fun for small children. The staff are friendly and helpful.
