GREETINGS FROM SUMMER CAMP 2019!

Dear Camp Families, We are gearing up for another wonderful summer at the Madison Area YMCA! Summer is the time of year for going on adventures, making new friends and creating memories that will last a lifetime. At Madison Area YMCA Summer Day Camps, we believe in the magic of summer and the depth of opportunities it can offer. We believe in providing a safe, energizing and fun environment where children and teens can be themselves and enjoy all that summer has to offer. Parents can expect their campers to gain confidence, build character and develop relationships all summer long. Campers will create unforgettable memories that last a lifetime all with the help of our dedicated Y camp staff.

From kindergarten all the way through 11th grade, campers will have a great experience, building character and independence through a variety of age-appropriate activities led by our thoughtful and caring staff.

Whether your child is a first time camper or if they have grown up with us, we are happy to welcome you to our camp family.

TEP S FORWARD

STEP FORWARD and experience new things this summer!

Drop off/pick up for SummerQuest is at the Madison Area YMCA’s Family Center: 111 Kings Road in Madison.

The Best Staff

The safety and care of your child is at the forefront of our minds as we carefully select our camp staff. Many of our camp counselors have grown up at the Y, so they know the program, traditions and values that our camps offer. At the Madison Area YMCA, our camp staff attends 40 hours of training and must successfully complete a rigorous background check and interview process. Training includes CPR, First Aid, AED, bullying prevention, child abuse prevention and bus safety. To supplement our highly-trained aquatics staff, many camp counselors are also American Red Cross certified lifeguards. Our counselors are dedicated to making this summer the best ever!

Field Trips

Each Camp at the Madison Area YMCA goes on a variety of field trips throughout the course of the summer. Examples include Liberty Science Center, Funplex and the Turtleback Zoo. For camp weeks that include a field trip, the registration fee cannot be prorated if a camper chooses not to participate in the field trip.

The Madison Area YMCA is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. The Y is the nation’s leading nonprofit committed to strengthening the community through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. At the Madison Area YMCA, we nurture the potential of every youth and teen, improve the community’s health and wellbeing, and provide opportunities to give back and support neighbors.

P E T S FORWARD THIS SUMMER

The Madison Area YMCA is a 501(c)(3) cause-driven charitable organization, committed to providing help to families who may not be able to afford the full price of camp. At the Y, we believe that every child should be able to enjoy the best summer camp experience possible. Financial assistance is available to families who qualify. However, spaces are limited. To be considered, families must submit required paperwork before completing camp registration.

Assistance is available to anyone who resides or works within the Madison Area YMCA’s service area that can provide proof of financial need whether it is due to low income, recent unemployment or downsizing, disability, divorce, etc. Special circumstances and expenses may also be taken into consideration when determining an award. We ask that everyone pay a percentage of the total cost.

Applicants who live outside our service area must first apply for camp assistance at the YMCA that serves their area. If denied, then the Madison Area YMCA will consider your application. (Proof of prior denial is required.)

Families interested in Camp Wantago should apply for financial assistance directly at the F.M. Kirby Children’s Center. Families who are interested in Camp KidsQuest, Camp SummerQuest or L.I.T. should apply for financial assistance at the Family Center.
