Frost Valley YMCA Day Camp

Frost Valley YMCA offers a safe, fun, character-building Day Camp for children living in our local communities as well as families staying in the area for the summer. In an effort to make camps affordable for all, financial assistance is available. Our Day Camp activities are based on healthy, hands-on activities that help children grow in spirit, mind and body, as well as embrace the 8 core values of Frost Valley YMCA: caring, community, diversity, honesty, inclusiveness, respect, responsibility, and stewardship.

Frost Valley YMCA’s programs focus on building and maintaining healthy lifestyles that reflect the interests and needs of a dynamic community. We offer a range of options for children in pre-K through grade 10. We ensure enjoyable camping and recreational experiences for each child. Camp groups are coed and are divided into groups by age and grade. We offer snack options daily at no extra charge. Parents will be responsible for providing a bagged lunch for their camper. Frost Valley is a nut-free facility.

Our counselors, who provide constant supervision and positive role modeling, are what make Frost Valley’s summer camp meaningful. Many are former campers who know our camp culture and are excited to share its traditions. Counselors complete extensive training in our policies and procedures, which stress health and safety first, in a fun environment. All Frost Valley staff and volunteers undergo criminal background checks and are scanned against the National Sex Offender Registry.

In compliance with NY State Health Department and ACA regulations, we maintain an impressive staff-to-camper ratio of an average of 1:5 for our explorers program, 1:8 for day campers and 1:4 for our horse programs.

SUMMER 2022 COVID VACCINATION POLICY:

All eligible campers and staff will be required to be fully vaccinated against Covid-19 to attend camp this summer. Stay tuned to our 2022 COVID-19 FAQ page online for more information: www.frostvalley.org/day-camp-covid-faqs

Documentation of Covid-19 vaccination for all eligible campers and two doses of the MMR vaccine is required.
