WHY YOU AND YOUR CHILD WILL LOVE THE YMCA!

Children have the BEST SUMMER EVERTM at the Y! The Y is one of the nation's largest providers of out-of-school programming and has more than 100 years experience in providing top-notch camp programs across the country. The Y is proud to provide a SAFE environment for kids to experience new adventures, learn new skills, continue learning through the summer months and hone their social skills.

At the YMCA we keep a 15:1 child to counselor ratio as we believe a smaller ratio creates a more personal

experience in which to learn and grow. (State of Florida mandates a

25:1 ratio.)

Our various camp programs offer opportunities for friendly competition

through games, sports, arts and knowledge all rooted in the YMCA core values of caring, honesty,

respect and responsibility.

We strive to promote Healthy Eating and Physical Activity (HEPA) standards in our many childcare program areas. Each Y camper will receive at least 1 to 2 hours of physical activity each day.

Y camp curriculum features the opportunity for enhanced learning activities and educational learning experiences. In addition, we are pleased to incorporate specialists into our camp curriculum who focus on topics such as

art and education.

Safety is paramount at the Y. All camp counselors are specifically trained to meet the needs of various

age levels and abilities, and are required to complete the 40-hour YMCA camp training course prior to instruction. They also must pass a nationwide background and drug screening and must hold current CPR

and First Aid certifications.

For your convenience, we offer curbside drop off for campers

at the back entrance of the YMCA, where you'll be greeted by a friendly Y staff member who manages our secure sign in/sign out process for each camper.

Our YMCA features two indoor pools. Each Y camper will enjoy at least an hour of swim time each day, 4 days per week. At the beginning of camp each camper is tested by YMCA lifeguards on swimming ability. If determined to be a "red band"

swimmer (needs improvement in swimming) they will receive a half hour of FREE swimming lessons once a week and have the remainder of time spent in recreational swim.

If you have any questions on Summer Camp at the Y, please contact us at 561-395-9622
