CAMP COUNSELORSAs role models, camp counselors are selected for sound judgement, maturity, experience, enthusiasm and creativity. Prior to being hired, all employees are interviewed and go through a complete background check. All employees are trained in CPR, first aid and child abuse prevention. Training occurs both before and throughout the summer to ensure attention to detail.

CAMPER/ PARENT ORIENTATIONSaturday, May 11, 2019 at 12:00pm or Tuesday, May 14 at 6:00pmLocation: Kishwaukee Family YMCA

Campers and their parents will meet camp counselors and get the 411 on what to expect at camp. Field trip and weekly schedule information will be handed out. If you haven’t registered by this date, don’t worry - registration can be taken at orientation. We strive to make your kids feel welcome and help them quickly realize this is a place where they belong and can be themselves.
