Caring & Well Trained Staff
Each of our staff undergoes a series of interviews, reference checks and a complete background/criminal history check. Our coordinators are college graduates who are working professionals in the fields of education and child development with over 40 years of camp experience and 20 years of teaching experience. Our senior staff are at least 18 years of age with prior experience working with children. Many of our staff have been former campers and have gone through our counselor in training program. All staff participate in over 25 hours pre camp training and are all certified in First Aid and CPR. We have a camp nurse on site each day.

Parents Trust Us
When you drop your child off at camp, we know that you are trusting us to provide high-quality care. With a low, camper-to-staff ratio, each child receives the attention they need to grow in a safe, supportive environment. Our on-site, full-time nurse provides additional support.  Proudly serving the Community for 71 years and 20 years at our Sawmill Branch.

Everyone belongs at the Y.  
We believe in serving the needs of all members of our community including those who may be unable to pay the full cost of membership or programs. Financial assistance 
is based on a number of factors including total household income and number of dependents in the household. Financial assistance applications are required and are due by May 1. The process is confidential.  E-mail ewiener@hamiltonymca.org for more information.

We encourage and support the participation of individuals with diverse abilities in all programs and services. During the camp day opportunities are created for children to enhance their self-esteem, build friendship skills, develop greater independence and give them a sense of their creative potential in a safe, fun and nurturing environment.
