TABLE OF CONTENTS
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Since I started my career at the
YMCA 30 years ago, there’s nothing
I’ve known to be more life-shaping
than summer camp. Camping, like
many Y programs, is about learning
new skills, developing character
and making friends. In addition
to traditional and specialty camp
activities, we are uniquely devoted to
physical activity and STEAM (Science,
Technology, Engineering, the Arts
and Mathematics) education in each
and every one of our programs. Few
environments will foster your child’s
mind, body and spirit than at the Y.

Campers will be split up and provided different
low key, age appropriate activities. Part of the

combat summer learning loss.
What information will I get before

In addition to the parent handbook, a precamp email is our courtesy communication
tool to inform you of the week’s schedule of
activities as well as answer any questions you
may have. If you sign up for a camp ThursdaySunday the week before camp, you will not get
a pre-camp e-mail. If you do not receive a precamp email, please confirm your email address
with the Member Services desk.
How can I get a camp schedule?
Camp schedules are available at the sign in/
sign out desk, from camp staff and at the
Member Services desk, two (2) weeks prior
to the beginning of camp, The camp schedule
provides you with information on what your
child will be doing during his/her time at camp.
Please note that these schedules are subject
to change. We do our best to provide you with
information early so you can plan ahead, but
summer camp is full of surprises, and we are
often forced to make changes. This schedule
also gives you information on what to bring.
What should my camper bring to
camp?
All campers must bring a healthy, peanut-free
lunch, plenty to drink and two snacks to camp
daily. Please send only non-perishable foods
because refrigeration is not possible. Campers
should also bring their own water bottle to
stay hydrated during the day. Send your child
to camp with a backpack to keep all of the
belongings together. Swimsuit and towel. A hat
for sun protection.
What to bring for travel camp?
Please label all items with name and phone
number. Campers must bring a healthy, nutfree lunch, 2 snacks and plenty to drink each
day. Campers should not need, nor should
bring large sums of money. Trips are subject to
change, so campers should bring a backpack
with swimsuit, towel and sunscreen each day,
regardless of the schedule. All campers should
wear comfortable and appropriate attire, such
as T-shirts, shorts and tennis shoes. Please do
not wear sandals or flip flops.

Should I pack water for my child?
Should my campers bring money to
camp?
What should my campers wear to
camp?
What if my camper loses something at
camp?
Is there a dress code for CITs?
What happens if my child is late for
Travel/Outdoor Camp?
Yes. Though we fill coolers for the kids and
our staff make regular trips to the restrooms
and drinking fountains, parents are ultimately
responsible for sending their child with plenty
of fluids for the day.
Children should wear clothing suitable for an
active day at camp. Appropriate items would
include shorts, t-shirts, light jackets (for chilly
mornings), and athletic shoes (no sandals).
Please label all items sent to camp with the
child’s first and last name. Our camps use
discovery and play as a major part of our camp
program, thus we encourage you to dress your
child in clothing that you do not mind getting
dirty or stained with art materials in the course
of your child engaging in a fun activity.
Counselors-in-Training, Leaders-in-Training,
and Jr. Lifeguards should dress just like the
FOR MORE
INFORMATION
No. Camp fees include all day trip admission
fees. The only exception is on extended
trips where campers may want to purchase
souvenirs, designated Pizza Fridays, or special
camp carnivals.
We know that sometimes things just get lost.
Please label all of your child’s belongings. The
best way to prevent the loss of property is to
leave it at home! There will be a designated
Lost and Found at each camp location. Please
check for your child’s items. Lost and found
items are kept at the YMCA for two full weeks
and then donated to charity. The YMCA is not
responsible for camper possessions that are
lost or stolen.
Unfortunately, we cannot hold the bus for a
camper who is running late. We will accept
them into a camp at the branch or offsite
location that piques their interest. You may
also drop off you camper at their field trip
destination.
What happens when my child needs to
be picked up early?
No problem! Please contact the Y prior to pick
up to ensure that your child is ready.
I am running late. What should I do?
Please contact the Y as soon as you know you
or your authorized pick-up person will be late.
We do charge $1 per minute you are late after
the designated pick-up time.

LEADERS-IN-TRAINING
The Leaders-in-Training program provides middle and high school youth with
opportunities for leadership training and service learning experiences with the
goal to create a team of young people that will better service their community
and the Y as they encourage one another to make a positive impact for present
and future generations. Junior Leaders begin to learn practical leadership
skills, participate in teambuilding activities and spend time working hands-on
with a group of traditional campers. Combined with traditional camp activities,
field trips and more, Leaders-in-Training transition seamlessly from camp to
Counselors-in-Training!
COUNSELORS-IN-TRAINING
Counselors-in-Training is a teen program specifically designed for our
future leaders. This two-phase program first sends your teen through a
week of training in First Aid, CPR, working with 5-12 year olds, camp songs,
games and crafts. After successfully completing training and achieving C.I.T.

with the daily operation of the traditional camps. This program provides an
excellent opportunity for these teens to learn hands-on job experience and
responsibilities, while still under the supervision of our camp staff team.
