WELCOME FAMILIES & CAMPERS: FRIENDSHIP, ACCOMPLISHMENT, BELONGING
Welcome to 2019 Summer Camp! We have once again been busy planning a very fun and eventful summer camp! There have been a few minor changes to our camps this year, most of which are our mastery offerings. We always like to keep things fresh and exciting for the kids; but really try to make sure and keep the things that your children have enjoyed the most throughout the years. Our Adventure Camp will continue to be more of a bridge to traditional summer camp, with field trips closer to home and activities adjusted to just this age group. Our goal is to continue to help campers build a sense of safety and security while venturing into new activities and experiences. We will also continue to provide various mastery activities for all of our day camps. Our Adventure camp will get to experience each mastery activity throughout the week. We are hoping that this will expose them to new things that might spark their interest. The older campers are going to continue to get the choice of which weekly mastery activity they would like to excel at, with the option of trying more than one as well. All of our activities and plans are directed towards each age group and will be adjusted based on their confidence and learning levels. Along with a summer full of fun trips and adventures, your children will be cared for by an exceptional group of counselors. We have planned a week long orientation for all camp staff to ensure that they are not only trained on safety and security for your children, but also how to meet the individual needs of each and every camper. Once again breakfast, lunch and snack will be provided by the YMCA’s Summer Food program. Camper’s delicious meals will all be well balanced and full of nutritious ingredients. This program also offers a learning experience to campers in regards to healthy food portions and choices. We are very eager to meet new campers and welcome back returning campers. We will see you soon for the best summer ever! Sincerely, Alexis Fuller Summer Camp Director

DAILY SCHEDULE DESCRIPTIONS EXTENDED CARE Regular camp sessions will run from 8:30am-4:00pm each day, however, understanding the various needs of family, we will continue to offer before camp care (from 5:30-8:30am) and after camp care (from 4:00-5:45pm) at no additional cost! This time will focus on Camper Choice and Play and Variety Activities as we wait for other campers to join us. OPENING & CLOSING CEREMONIES Acknowledging the start and end of each day with a ritual gives your camp the chance to assemble as one large group, participate in fun and engaging routines, recognize and celebrate campers and counselors, and experience an inclusive and positive social environment. HUDDLE GROUP Getting to know campers’ names, interests, and qualities during small-group interactions creates a positive social environment, promotes friendships among campers, and reduces and resolves behavior conflicts and bullying. CAMPER CHOICE Supervised time, not directed by camp counselors, provides campers with an important opportunity to make individual choices and feel a sense of belonging at camp. Campers can use the time to explore various opportunities for indoor, outdoor or imaginative play. RELAX & READING An opportunity for the children to rest after the morning activities by engaging in calming activities such as reading, coloring, and journaling.
MASTERY ACTIVITIES Sports of all Sorts, Art & Culture, S.T.E.M. Giving campers a chance to select an activity to practice at least three times during a camp week helps them build a sense of achievement. When campers return to an activity with a clear goal in mind, they are able to build skills in that activity. Weekly activities will be offered, with recognition for successful completion. Campers will use tracking systems to record accomplishments over the summer. VARIETY ACTIVITIES Exploring a range of activities throughout the camp session allows campers to discover their interests and talents. These activities are a little more general than mastery activities, focused less on skill building and more on trying new things and connecting with others. DAILY REFLECTION It’s easy to jump from one activity to the next in the excitement and rush of the camp day, but youth development is best supported by building in time for individual or small-group reflection on activities or the day’s events. These few moments will foster relationships and support belonging among campers and between campers and counselors. It’s a fun way to end each day. CAMP CONNECTION Engaging campers to select, organize, and run an event builds collaboration skills and offers important leadership opportunities. These events will celebrate the fun of the week...maybe it will be a performance, showcase, or favorite game...the campers will decide!

LEADERS IN TRAINING ENTERING GRADES 7 & UP
The Leaders in Training (LIT) program is a leadership development and mentoring program. This training program gives youth who have aged out of our camps the opportunity to give back to the program by assisting our adult counselors with camp. The goal of this program is to provide participants with opportunities to improve their leadership skills and to be an example of the YMCA’s four core values (honesty, caring, respect, and responsibility). In addition to working on leadership, the LIT program develops skills needed to deal effectively with groups of children, organization, safety awareness, and motivation. Participants are expected to commit to a set schedule (or adequately communicate with their supervisor if unable to attend), participate fully in camp activities, and demonstrate positive role modeling at all times.
STURGEON BAY PROGRAM DIRECTORS: Lee McConkey & Tyler Powell PROGRAM LOCATION: Dependent on Camp Assigned PROGRAM TIMES: Dependent on Camp Assigned Applicants for this program will need to fully complete an application and attend the mandatory leadership training. Applications can be found online at DoorCountyYMCA.org, or may be picked up at the Sturgeon Bay Program Center. • Mandatory leadership training session will be held Wednesday, June 12th from 11:00am to 1:00pm at the Lansing Avenue Center. Lunch will be provided. “The Leaders in Training program is the perfect opportunity for students who are too old for camp but still want to experience the fun of summer camp and give back to the community. Our LIT’s are an essential asset to our wonderful counselors in helping to keep our camps a fun and safe environment for all participants.”
• Applications for this program must be submitted by June 3rd, 2019.

CAMP DEPOSITS, PAYMENT AND CANCELLATIONS
A non-refundable deposit is required at the time of registration unless you receive a subsidy or are currently enrolled in Kids Club or Barker Care. A deposit of 25% is required if you register by May 30, and 50% is required if you register after May 30; your deposit is applied to your total camp fees. The balance of camp fees must be scheduled for a payment plan and MUST be paid in full prior to scheduled camp day unless otherwise arranged with JoAnna Severinsen. • Transfers from one camp day to another will be accepted on a space-available basis without penalty. • Y retains 25% of camp fee for all cancellations made before May 30 and 50% of cancellation made after May 30. • Camp enrollments are accepted 48 hours prior to the camp day, or on a space-available basis. • Due to high costs associated with offering camp, we need to ensure fees are kept current. Failure to meet payment schedules may result in termination of care. • All questions, concerns, cancellations or transfers must be handled by JoAnna Severinsen or Alexis Fuller.
EARLY REGISTRATION DISCOUNTS
It pays to not only become a member of the Y, but also to register early for Summer Camp. Registration opens on March 12th for Y members and March 14th for the community. With two pricing tiers, the earlier you register the more you can save. Campers can register for the whole summer, specific weeks or random days. By registering for the full summer of camp, members will receive a discount equivalent to 5 days of camp FREE!
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
At the YMCA, Summer Camp is for everyone, regardless of income. We are committed to giving everyone the opportunity to participate in character building programs regardless of one’s ability to pay. A subsidy program, provided through the State of Wisconsin, as well as partial financial assistance from the YMCA, if the state subsidy is less then 50%, is available for all of our licensed camps. State subsidy, if applicable, will be applied first to camp fees. Parents are required to pay all fees not covered by subsidy support or financial assistance. For financial assistance information contact Sue Crass at the Sturgeon Bay Program Center (920) 743.4949 or Josh Lardinois at the Northern Door Program Center (920) 868.3660. All requests are confidential. For state subsidy information, contact Val Bauldry at Human Services of Door County at (920) 746.2245. A current “Authorization of Service” must be on file with the YMCA prior to attendance. Parent/Guardian is responsible for full payment until “Authorization of Service” is received. Parents must submit co-payment by the end of each month to continue care into the following month. Verification of subsidy support is due by June 10 or regular deposit is immediately due.
CAMP SUPERVISION POLICY
The Door County YMCA is not able to provide 1:1 supervision of any child in our camp programs. Planned ratios are implemented and range from 1:10 to 1:15 depending on ages and activities. If your child requires more supervision, it will be the parent’s responsibility to inform the YMCA and provide that service for your child. Assisting adults are permitted to accompany children in our camps at no additional cost. Contact the camp director to make arrangements before your child arrives at camp.
SWIMMING POLICY
Summer fun includes swimming in our tremendous aquatic facilities or local beaches! Please note that most of our Camp Compass programs include instructional and/or recreational swim time as a part of the curriculum. Instructional swim lessons include a pre- and post-season assessment that will be sent home for you to see your campers’ progress.
JOIN THE Y! All campers are encouraged to join the YMCA and become a member to receive a discount on camp and full membership privileges. A youth membership is $18.50 per month.
