Welcome to Fairview Lake YMCA Camps!

The recipe for a wonderful childhood includes adventure, learning, safety, friends and fun. These are the components Fairview Lake builds upon as we design our programs. For over 100 years we have been creating memories for children and their families.

Our programs are created to help children grow in their sense of belonging as they meet new people and develop life-long friendships. The community that is created at Fairview Lake is nurtured through our staff. We go to great lengths to find and train the best staff from all over the world. The majority of our staff team come from our own leadership development programs and they understand the values and impact of Fairview Lake. Physical, as well as emotional safety is emphasized in our trainings and programs.

Fairview Lake is a fun place filled with friendly people. The exciting activities draw people in, but it’s the relationships that get formed here that get people to come back year after year. Our campers have been telling us that they leave here with positive memories that last a lifetime.

Our rich heritage is a testament to what we have done in the past but no year is more important than this coming summer and we look forward to serving our 2016 campers.

Grace and Peace,

Bob Kahle, Executive Director

BELONGyou

New friendships bloom quickly at camp. Whether kids arrive on their own or bring friends, campers bond quickly as they share living space, motivate and support each other with new challenges and enjoy songs and skits.

TRADITIONAL CAMP

Kittatinny is our male traditional camp program unit and Laurel Ridge is our female traditional camp program unit. Campers will share a cabin with other boys or girls their age. Our 3-week sessions allow for plenty of opportunity to develop relationships, while participating in an array of cabin and program activities. Each week, campers will have the opportunity to select three progressive program activities in which to participate. Campers will participate in each of these selected activities on a daily basis, along with swim instruction and opportunities for unstructured free play. Each evening, campers will participate in an all-camp activity prior to lights out. Believe it or not there is still time for “siesta” right after lunch when everyone has a little quiet time to read a book, write home, share time with friends or visit the Trading Post.

TRADITIONAL CAMP (CONT.)

MINISINK Coed entering grades 2-4

Our Minisink program is an ideal introductory experience for the younger camper. For many of our younger campers, this is their first time away from home and therefore, the goals of the program are to provide a safe and comforting environment for our participants so that they may feel challenged to try new things and develop a sense of independence. In addition, the Minisink program provides a balance of structured and choice activities. Each camper receives swim instruction, cabin and unit activities plus two elected periods daily. The afternoon concludes with the campers electing to participate in a recreational swim or heading to the athletic field for sports. While Minisink campers receive the individual attention they need, they also enjoy participating in all camp activities and meals with the older Laurel Ridge and Kittatinny campers. This is perfect when siblings attend camp together and also makes for a smooth transition into Laurel Ridge and Kittatinny as the campers get older.

Living and playing with an open mind is a way of life at camp. Campers come from many different backgrounds, allowing campers the opportunity to learn from others who are different from themselves. This is an important take away for campers to use right through adulthood.

COUNSELOR-IN-TRAINING PROGRAMFor Traditional, Adventure Trips and Ranch Campers Coed entering grade 11 (16 years-old)

The CIT program is an extensive and rigorous four-week program that offers selected applicants the opportunity to develop leadership, program, outdoor living, and effective counselor skills. The focus is on small group dynamics, communication skills, teamwork and value clarification, as well as conflict resolution. Selected applicants participate in a variety of exercises and challenges and also have the opportunity to take the American Red Cross Lifeguard Course.

The first three weeks of the program will focus on skills and techniques through a plethora of exciting lessons. The final week of the program will provide applicants the opportunity to experience the life of a camp counselor as they are fully immersed in assisting counselors. Due to the success of the program, we will be offering two, four-week programs to allow for more individual growth and attention. The goal is to have our CITs leave their four-week program with the skills to be effective leaders at camp, and back home in their communities.

Please contact the summer camp director for specific information.
