SUMMER 2019 CAMP CLARKE at the NEWPORT COUNTY YMCA
WELCOME!
 to our camps at the Newport County YMCA & Fort Adams
Dear Families,
In today’s world, we believe it is more important than ever to give our children
a safe place to be a kid: where they can create lasting memories, friendships,
excitement, and opportunity for growth. That is what Camp Clarke offers at
the Newport County YMCA.
Along with NEW Traditional and Specialty Camps, the Newport County YMCA
is excited to share our NEW Camp name with you! The 8-acres that the
Newport County YMCA sits on has been an asset of the John Clarke Trust
for over 340 years. In 2018, the Y purchased this land allowing us to
continue serving the Newport County community, and to pursue expansion
and renovation opportunities, for decades to come. The John Clarke Trust,
established in 1676, is the oldest charitable trust in the United States. His will
instructed that the Trust be created, “for the relief of the poor or bringing
up of children unto learning from time to time forever”. Out of respect for
the trust, we have changed our summer camp name to honor the legacy of this
great visionary.

At Camp Clarke we offer a wide variety of activities; from sports, to games,
arts and crafts, and many other fun activities. With the help of our well trained
staff, it is our goal to find the right fit for your child and give them their BEST
SUMMER EVER!
                                                                                      Our Camp Philosophy supports
