CAMP OVERVIEW
PRESCHOOL

period as well as lower camper-to-staff ratios: 3 and 4 year olds are 1:10 and 5 year olds are 1:12.

arts & crafts, creative expression, outdoor play, games and puzzles, and much more!

SPECIAL NOTE
Locations and sports require campers to be outside during the camp day. YMCA staff is trained in the challenges of operating outside during the
summer. Camps will take routine breaks inside or in the shade, and schedules are adjusted to limit exposure during the hottest part of the day.
I love how all the counselors and coaches treat every
child with dignity, respect and encourage each to try to
reach above and beyond!
