ELECTRONIC-FREE<br />
Did you know that kids ages 5 to 10 spend an average<br />
of up to six hours on screen media daily? That is one of the<br />
reasons why the use of cell phones, cameras or other<br />
electronic devices during camp is prohibited.<br />
Such equipment, if present, will be asked to be put away or<br />
confiscated and returned at the end of the day. We want<br />
your children to get the most out of their time at camp.<br />
Dress for the weather and please<br />
label your camper’s belongings!<br />

“<br />
Both of my kids went to camp at the YMCA<br />
this year—and they both loved it. I believe it<br />
was very well run and structured, and that the<br />
counselors were excellent role models.<br />
