Parent Information
Location & Times
Camp will operate all summer, Monday through Friday, 7 a.m.- 6 p.m. Campers may register for just one week or all the weeks. Sessions began June 6 through September 2. We will have off-site locations to house 24 campers. You can request an off-site location.
Safety
Safety is our first priority.
Campers are taught the YMCA core values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility.
All camp staff are CPR and first-aid certified. With a staff-to-child ratio of 1:15, we make sure that each staff member can give the required attention to each child.
Swimming
Children that are 7 or older will complete a swim test given by lifeguards. If they pass they will be given a colored and that communicates to staff that the child is allowed to swim in the deep end. Children younger than 7 must remain in the shallow end.
What to Bring to Camp
- Snack
- Water Bottle
- Sunscreen
- Swimsuit and Towel on Swim Days
- Weather Appropriate Clothing
- Tennis Shoes (No sandals, flip-flops, or open-toed shoes)

We recommend labeling belongings with your child's name.
Stay Connected
We want to keep you connected to camp information and announcements.
Each Friday we will email a parent newsletter with highlights and need-to-know details for the upcoming week.
We will also have a Remind page for parents to contact counselors or counselors to contact parents. Please join our Remind groups by texting "@22ymcacamp" to 81010.
