Summer Day Camp 2014 At YMCA SOUTHCOAST, we believe camping is about having fun and developing skills while offering opportunities that allow children to grow to their fullest potential. We develop character at camp by teaching and demonstrating our core values of honesty, respect, caring and responsibility to our campers. Our five summer day camps provide your child multiple opportunities to learn new skills, develop confidence and character, and make new friends.

PARENTS TRUST US

YMCA SOUTHCOAST Day Camps provide a happy, healthy environment for children to learn and grow. Children have the opportunity to build self-confidence, independence, and creativity, while parents have the peace of mind knowing their children are in a safe and enriching place.

SAFETY ∙ Accreditation & Licensing

YMCA Southcoast day camps operate according to standards set forth by the American Camp Association (ACA). ACA accredits each of our ® day camp programs. The ACA believes “Camp gives kids a World of Good ” because camp is a building block to the successful development of young people. This independent body establishes standards for key aspects of camp operation, program quality, health and safety of campers. The ACA accreditation includes an on-site visitation every three years. Our partnership with ACA means we promote fun and learning in a safe environment. Our campers are staffed by counselors who are genuinely interested in working with children—certified in First Aid and CPR. Each staff member must pass a rigorous background check before they start working at camp. In addition, each camp complies with regulations of the Massachusetts Department of Health and local boards of health.

Contact the camp or download the 2014 Camp Brochure online for all the details of our camp offerings available for your child this summer.

YOUTH DEVELOPMENT Early Education for Toddlers & Preschoolers Ages 15 months – 5 years

With so many demands on today’s families, parents need all the support they can get. That’s why early childhood programs at the Y are about more than looking after kids. It’s about nurturing their development by providing a safe place to learn skills and develop relationships that lead to positive behavior, better health and educational achievement. At the Y, we also focus on role-modeling and teaching kids the Y values of caring, honesty, respect, responsibility. We welcome families at all of our program sites and encourage you to visit. Holidays, parties, family nights, special programs, field trips are all occasions for families to get involved at the Y. We are proud to be accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children for maintaining the highest professional standards in curriculum and teaching qualifications. This accreditation lets families know that children in our program are receiving the best care in early care experiences. This reinforces our mission of building strong kids, strong families and strong communities beginning with our youngest children.
