Y CAMP 2021
CAMP JUNE 1 THROUGH
SpYMCA! AUGUST 7
Why Y Camp?
What makes Y Camp stand out from other day camp programs is
its comprehensiveness. Y Camp keeps kids physically active through
games, sports, and pool time. Creativity is sparked and learning is
promoted through crafts, skits, camp songs, literacy activities, and
STEAM projects (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art,
Mathematics). Character is developed through our Y Ties Initiative,
conflict resolution skill building, and by instilling the Y’s Core Values
(Respect, Responsibility, Honesty, and Caring) throughout the day.
That’s just the tip of the iceberg! Each week is a new and exciting
adventure, jam-packed with tons of fun activities that appeal to a
wide range of interests and abilities.
Now, more than ever, the Y recognizes the need for the continued
support of our campers’ academic success while out of the
classroom. This summer, the Y is fully committed to combatting the
summer slide! Each morning, campers will participate in fun and
enriching academic challenges and activities. These STEAM and
literacy-based projects have been designed to exercise your child’s
mind and enrich what they have learned in the classroom, while still
providing the fun, high-energy camp experience that the Y is known
for.
Raising the B.A.R. in Camp!
We’ve raised the “B.A.R.” at Y Camp! Your camper will feel
a sense of Belonging, where they will feel comfortable
expressing their individuality in a safe and
respectful environment. They will feel a sense of
Achievement as they develop new skills and realize their
passions and talents. They will build Relationships with their
Y-Leaders and fellow campers that inspire them to reach their full
potential. These important elements are interwoven throughout all camp
activities and lay the foundation for everything we do.

strongly recommend that parents enroll early.
• Smaller ratios (1 staff per 10 campers).
• Frequent hand washing/sanitizing.
• Frequent sanitizing of rooms and supplies.
• Enhanced staff training on promoting positive behavior and mental health.
• Promotion of healthy hygiene, including personal bubbles, elbow bumps instead of high-
fives, covering mouths for coughs/sneezes, not sharing food/beverage items, and not
touching faces.
• Encouraging campers to wear a pair of “camp only” shoes.
• Requiring parents to report any illness within the household to the Camp Director
immediately for assessment and prompt response.
• Thorough wellness checks at sign-in and throughout the day for staff, volunteers, and
campers. Please prepare for sign-in to take longer this year as we prioritize safety over
speed.
• Campers, staff, and volunteers must stay home if they feel ill or exhibit signs/symptoms of
any communicable illness during wellness checks. While these signs/symptoms may be
experienced by individuals with conditions that are not communicable (e.g., allergies),
government guidelines dictate that childcare centers should not admit an individual
displaying these signs/symptoms nonetheless.

MISSION IN ACTION
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
We believe strong communities are possible only when we
invest in our kids, our health, and our neighbors. This is done by
providing high-quality, affordable programming that is
accessible for all. Thanks to the generous support of donors, the
Y is able to ensure that no one is turned away due to the
inability to pay – as long as funds and space are available. Visit a
Y or our website for more information about our Camp Financial
Assistance Program. Inquire early as it can take up to 10
business days for us to approve your application.
PAY IT FORWARD
As a community-driven charity, we encourage children and adults of
every age to give back. Ask about how to volunteer, make a
donation to the Y’s Annual Campaign so you can “Pay It Forward,” or
leave a family legacy by joining our Heritage Club. Every
contribution, no matter how small, has the power to strengthen the
community we all share.
FOOD SERVICE PROGRAM
SUMMER | Meet Up To Eat Up
No child goes hungry at the YMCA! Each day, hundreds of children
across Southern Nevada are served a FREE, nutritious cold lunch
and afternoon snack through the Y’s Summer Food Service
Program. Should your camper prefer to pack their own lunch
and/or afternoon snack, they can place the free food on our sharing
table for other campers to enjoy.
In accordance with Federal Law and US Department of Agriculture
Policy, this institution is prohibited from discriminating on the basis
of race, color, national origin, sex, age, or disability.
Note: The Summer Food Service Program is not offered at the

CALLING ALL JUNIOR AGENTS!
CAMP THEME
DATE: JUNE 1, 2021
LOCATION: UNDISCLOSED, LAS VEGAS, NV
YOUR MISSON:
The SpYMCA is in search of brave adventurers willing to complete our secret agent training. Each week, Junior
Agents will be challenged to travel to a different country to gather valuable intelligence about their art, music,
food, games, inventions, and culture. To complete your training, you must demonstrate outstanding character
and collaborate with allies across the globe. You will participate in daring missions, and collect stamps in your
passport along the way.
You will trek through the Amazon, explore the Taj Mahal, and even summit Mt. Everest. But, beware… The evil
imposter Dr. D. Stroy is lurking around every corner, ready to sabotage your training and claim you as a double
agent! Evade Dr. D. Stroy, and complete all ten missions to become a SpYMCA Senior Agent.
The world is waiting. Do you accept your mission?
TRADITIONAL DAY CAMP | AGES 5-15
Traditional Camp is so much more than just a place to go when school’s out for the summer. At Y Camp,
campers have fun, develop skills, and gain confidence through games, swimming, sports, crafts,educational
activities, character development, and so much more. During the summer, children lose up to 30% of
knowledge gained during the school year. Therefore, we incorporate fun literacy and STEAM-based activities
to combat the summer slide and advance your child’s learning.
CAMP AGE GROUPS
The YMCA of Southern Nevada offers the following traditional camps all summer long, Monday - Friday from
7:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Campers are divided into smaller groups based on their age, so that they are paired with
similarly-aged peers and can enjoy developmentally appropriate activities. Each Y may group campers
differently and reserves the right to regroup campers as needed. Campers must meet the group’s age
requirements by the last day of camp. Please speak with the Camp Director if you have a special request in this
regard.
