SUMMER CAMPS & ADVENTURE TRIPS
DISCOVER YOUR TRUE NATURE THIS SUMMER! Although summer camp might last up to eight weeks, at Frost Valley we create moments and experiences that last a lifetime. While here in the picturesque and serene Catskill Mountains, Frost Valley campers have an opportunity often overlooked in our increasingly busy lives – an opportunity to lay the foundation for a fulfilling, successful life. With studying and homework on hold, campers have a chance to focus on building the facets of character that will carry them not only through the next school year but through life. Numerous camp offerings allow families to select from a broad range of programs that appeal to each camper’s interests and needs. From traditional overnight camp, to horseback riding and farm camps, to survival and adventure programs, there’s truly something for everyone here. All of the programs within these pages are rich with summer camp traditions and activities – such as s’mores around the campfire, hiking, archery, boating, and more – but everything we do is guided by our signature core values: caring, community, diversity, honesty, inclusiveness, respect, responsibility, and stewardship. The most cherished aspect of Frost Valley summer camp is our commitment to ensuring that an engaging, growth-filled summer is available for all. Campers become bunkmates with new friends of varying background, abilities, and beliefs. They are guided by counselors and role models from all over the world and of all fields of expertise to help campers create a welcoming, lively community. Thanks to programs that focus on inclusiveness paired with our commitment to celebrating everyone’s unique differences, we hear one phrase over and over again: “At Frost Valley, I can finally be myself.” We believe all children deserve a place where they can safely unlock their potential, surrounded by a community that embraces them for who they are. That sense of belonging is crucial to building confidence and self-awareness, which is why a summer at Frost Valley is a summer that lasts a lifetime.
We encourage you to register today – sessions are already filling! Our friendly, knowledgeable staff members are standing by to answer your questions!

SUMMER OVERNIGHT CAMP Imagine you’re here in the Catskills on a warm summer day. You hike up the trail toward the cool spray of High Falls. Later, you and your new friends start a game of gaga ball that you’ll be laughing about for the next week. Or maybe you, along with our experienced camp staff, choose to climb up the 40-foot Y Tower, soar down the zipline, join a choreographed dance routine or go for a horseback ride on the trails. By then you’ll want to cool off with a plunge in the refreshing waters of Lake Cole. Day turns to night and the air grows cooler but the crackling campfire keeps you and your cabin-mates warm. You’re making s’mores and telling stories beneath a blanket of stars. New friends feel as comfortable as family. Counselors lead the sing-along. The summer seems perfectly endless. The night does, too. And soon dawn breaks. There are pancakes in the dining hall, the sleepy, smiling faces of all your friends, and you get to enjoy another day in the Valley all over again!
CAMP FOR ALL Every child deserves the opportunity to have the summer of a lifetime. Enrolling in a Frost Valley camp program opens a world of opportunities in leadership, skill building, and appreciation for the natural world. With the generous support of our donor community, nearly 600 children received the gift of Frost Valley Summer Camp in 2018. We believe the cost of summer camp should not be a burden on any family. For this reason, we offer the following options to make camp more affordable: •
As a non-profit, all programs are offered at cost
•
Tiered Pricing is available if the cost of camp is just out of reach (see page 12)
•
Scholarships are available! To apply, visit: www.frostvalley.org/for-all
If you have any questions or concerns about cost, please contact the registrars office at 845-985-2291 x203 or email campregistration@frostvalley.org
FROST VALLEY STAFF Frost Valley YMCA is dedicated to hiring only the most qualified and experienced counselors to care for our campers. Many have been with us since they were young, journeying from camper to counselor in training (CiT) to counselor. They know our history, culture, traditions, and terrain as if they have Frost Valley in their DNA. Others come to us from over a dozen countries around the world. Before being hired, all Frost Valley YMCA staff over 18, including our counselors, are given background and criminal history checks. Counselors undergo extensive training in our policies and procedures, which stress health and safety. For more about our staff, see page 9.

TRADITIONAL OVERNIGHT CAMPS CAMP WAWAYANDA (GRADES 2-7)
Many young campers spend their first nights away from home in Camp Wawayanda, where they discover a cabin full of new friends waiting to meet them and form lifelong bonds. Children grow alongside one another and discover that differences can be celebrated and triumphs are often shared. Camp Wawayanda is a traditional overnight camp where, during two-week sessions, children build independence while choosing from a wide range of activities based on age, interest, and ability. Campers gain confidence, new skills, and good friends as they climb the Y-tower, hike to High Falls, canoe across Lake Cole, and learn from role models from around the world.
“This is my child’s ‘happy place!’ I love the values-based programming and friendly, well-educated staff.” - Camper Parent
Campers live in villages according to age and gender. For more information about Camp Wawayanda, please email campdirector@frostvalley.org or call (845) 985-2291 ext. 271.

“Frost Valley is where I had incredibly formidable experiences as a young man. It’s a big part of who I am today, 40+ years later.” - Cherished Alumnus
ALL-CAMP EVENTS SMALL WORLD FAIR (1ST SESSION) The Fourth of July begins, like all other days, with a flag raising ceremony. However, for our Independence Day celebration, the entire camp joins together around the flagpole to sing a rousing happy birthday to America. During the day, campers participate in activities to celebrate this patriotic day. Later, we invite our international summer staff to participate in a Small World Fair, where campers participate in sharing the history and traditions of a variety of cultures. The celebration culminates with an evening of fireworks over Lake Cole.
OLYMPIX (2ND SESSION) Every summer, the Olympix spirit sweeps through camp when Frost Valley hosts our annual Olympix championship. Competing countries vary from year to year and are represented by groups of campers. The opening ceremony commences the night before with dances, skits, and songs representing the cultural traditions of each country. Team unity and pride are on full display, but it’s the spirit of Frost Valley that rises strong. Let the games begin!
CARNIVALLEY (3RD SESSION) CarniValley is our Session 3 all-camp activity, the greatest carnival to ever take place at Frost Valley! At CarniValley, records will be set that will go down in camp history. The competition is always friendly and a wide range of carnival games will be enjoyed by all. Something for everyone! This lively day will wrap up with a lip-sync battle to remember. Each village will spend the week preparing to compete for awards such as “Best Air Guitar” or “Most Enthusiastic”. This red carpet, Core-Values-sponsored event, will be covered by Frost Valley TV. Lights! Camera! Action!
HIRDSTOCK (4TH SESSION) Hirdstock, a camp-wide music festival inspired by the original Woodstock, takes place during the fourth session. Campers participate in arts and crafts, games, an air guitar competition, and other activities on Hirdstock Field. But the main attraction is always the music. Performances and musical acts by campers and counselors draw the positive vibes of all present.
DIVERSITY: We promote a culture of respect and value diversity.

FAQs WHO SUPERVISES WHAT IF MY CHILD MY CHILD? GETS SICK?
WHERE WILL MY CHILD SLEEP?
Many of our summer staff members were campers who became CiTs and then counselors, so they know Frost Valley YMCA better than most. Others join us from around the world as international staff. Many return year after year, giving Frost Valley a family environment and a true sense of culture and tradition. Counselors undergo extensive training on our policies and procedures which stress health and safety first. In-depth background and criminal history checks are performed on all of our employees. We follow the American Camp Association standards by providing a 1 to 6 counselor to camper ratio. For younger campers, this ratio is often smaller. To ensure a welcoming and familiar community, roughly 70% of our staff return each summer.
Camp accommodations vary from single cabins, lodges, yurts and tents that house two-to-four groups of campers. These arrangements all promise the opportunity for friendships to flourish naturally and with ease, while under the close supervision of counselors and village chiefs. We honor one mutual bunk request per camper.
The Guenther Family Wellness Center, located on camp, is staffed by registered nurses and emergency responders 24 hours a day. If your child gets sick, you will be notified immediately while your child receives the care they need. To learn more, email: ddauria@frostvalley.org
WHAT WILL MY CHILD EAT? Three hot, wholesome meals are served daily. Our dining hall offers a vast array of options from the typical kid fare to organic, glutenfree, dairy-free, and vegan options. Care is taken to meet the dietary needs of all of our campers. Fresh fruit is available for snacking all day long. Chartwells Educational Dining Service creates the menus, ensuring that each meal is nutritionally balanced. Candy, juice, and soda are not served nor sold in the Camp Store.
IS TRANSPORTATION AVAILABLE? We offer bus transportation to and from camp in these neighborhoods: Brooklyn NY, Montclair NJ, and Manhattan! The cost is $80.00 per camper, one way. For more information, please contact us at campregistration@frostvalley.org.
IS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AVAILABLE? Frost Valley YMCA’s Annual Giving Campaign raises money for “camperships” to provide a Frost Valley experience for nearly 600 children who would not otherwise be able to join us. For more information about our camperships and to start the application process, email: campregistration@frostvalley.org.
RENOWNED STAFF TRAINING! All Frost Valley camp staff, including returning staff, experience up to three weeks of rigorous training. Beyond First Aid and CPR, staff also receive training on child development, risk management, homesickness, and more. For example, in 2018 prominent parenting expert Dr. Deborah Gilboa (as seen on the Today Show) inspired our staff with a thought-provoking, informative talk on character development.

WHY 3 TUITION FEES? Frost Valley serves families with different abilities to pay. Tuition A reflects the true cost of camp. Tuitions B & C have been created to help families that would like some financial assistance to send their child to summer camp. You choose the price – no extra paperwork needed! In the event that Tuition A, B, or C are out of your family’s budget, please contact us about financial aid. We believe every child should have a camp experience. Regardless of the tuition paid there is no difference in the camp experience for your child!
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE Our goal is to make Frost Valley YMCA Summer Camp affordable for everyone through camperships. Visit FrostValley.org or email campregistration@frostvalley.org for more information.

BEAR GRYLLS SURVIVAL ACADEMY BEAR GRYLLS SURVIVAL ACADEMY TEEN SUMMER PROGRAMS (BOYS & GIRLS AGES 11-17)
Imagine you’re lost in the Catskill Mountains. The days are hot and the nights are cool. There’s no cell phone service and no signs of civilization. In a wilderness survival situation, would you have what it takes to make it through the night? Through the week? Frost Valley YMCA is now home to the world’s first Bear Grylls Survival Academy Summer Camp for teens. This six-day extreme course is led by survival professionals trained by the Bear Grylls Survival Academy. Through their guidance and supervision, campers gain dozens of skills as they’re put to the test in thrilling survival and endurance scenarios such as: • • • • •
“You may come to BGSA and think ‘what did I get myself into,’ but this is one of the best camps I have ever done.” - BGSA Camper
Foraging for food & learning to set traps Building fire to cook over & stay warm Creating shelters to sleep in Crossing waterways & rough terrain Carrying out various methods of dynamic self-rescue
This is also the only Frost Valley program to repel down High Falls! Campers are outfitted with the essential gear, so they can experience simulated, yet no less extreme, survival situations in the Catskill wilderness. While building a strong sense of camaraderie with fellow survivalists, campers explore the natural world around them and take healthy risks that push them beyond their comfort zones.

ADVENTURE CAMPS ADVENTURE VILLAGE (GRADES 5-9)
Adventure Village is organized into two minivillages, Woodwise (Grades 5-7) and Sequoia (Grades 8 & 9), both with the same mission: to help campers become lifetime lovers of the outdoors! Combining the best of Overnight Camp and Adventure Trips, campers choose their adventure from activities like climbing, day-long hikes exploring trails and creek beds, orienteering, ropes courses, and outdoor skills. Campers in the village will also experience a multi-night camping trip.
“My nephew is shy but Frost Valley is a different story. Tears of joy roll down my sister’s eyes as she looks at pictures of her son having a great time.”
Adventure Village’s homebase is tucked in the woods between two converging mountain creeks with a communal Mongolian Yurt in the center. Campers sleep in bunks in canvas platform tents where they drift off to the soothing sounds of frogs chirping in the cool mountain air beneath the brilliant starlight.
