BEST
SUMMER
EVER!
BOOTHBAY REGION YMCA AND CLC YMCA
COME TOGETHER FOR SUMMER CAMP!
2015
WELCOME CAMPERS!
Make this the best summer ever.
Make friends to last a lifetime!
Dear Y Families,
The Boothbay Region and CLC YMCAs Keep Youth Moving, Learning and Exploring this Summer~2015 with a pilot
Summer Camp experience!
The Boothbay Region Y in partnership with the Central Lincoln County (CLC) YMCA are offering a combined and
expanded summer camp experience - with transportation - to give kids and teens in Lincoln County an
adventurous, active and healthy summer. Our YMCA camp programs offer youth fun and unique experiences with
an opportunity to explore the outdoors, meet new friends, discover new interests and create memories that last a
lifetime.
“Over the course of several months in 2014, Boothbay Region and CLC Y staff, board and other community
volunteers participated on a task force to develop a Summer Camp Strategic plan for the Boothbay Region YMCA.
Andy Hamblett, Maddie Rideout, Tracey Hall, Emily Mirabile, Meagan Hamblett, Peggy Pinkham, Neal Verge, Melissa
Cullina, David Eastwood, Wells Moore and Sarah Baldwin along with CLC Y staff and volunteer Joe Clark and Dennis
Anderson met with Y USA Resource Director, Kellie Wardman to develop a comprehensive plan to include outreach
to Lincoln County”, says BRYMCA, Executive Director, Andy Hamblett.
Summer is the ideal time for kids to get up, get out and explore. But, for some kids summer means no access (lack
of transportation and financial resources) to recreational and educational activities to help them learn, grow and
thrive during out-of-school time. As a result, some kids can experience learning loss and gain weight twice as fast
than during the school year. Attending any of our combined summer camps this summer is a wonderful opportunity
for kids and teens to keep their minds and bodies active”, says CLC YMCA CEO, Meagan Hamblett.
“YMCA summer camp supports the social-emotional, cognitive development and physical well-being of kids,” says
Maddie Rideout, Joe Clark, Tracey Hall and Emily Mirabile, Y Camp Directors. “Kids are in a welcoming environment
where they can belong, build relationships, develop character and achieve – discovering their potential. We really
encourage parents to give their kids the gift of camp so that every child can benefit from the experience.”
There are five reasons why youth should attend summer camp:
1. ADVENTURE: Summer camp is all about a w ide variety of fun adventures and new experiences, and
especially exploring the outdoors. YMCA camps have a new adventure for every child and teen.
2. HEALTHY FUN: Both full and half day camp experiences offer fun, stimulating activities that engage the
body and mind, and also help children and teens learn the importance of nutrition to help improve their healthy
eating habits.
3. PERSONAL GROWTH: W hile being aw ay from the routine back home, youth have a chance to learn new
skills, and develop confidence and independence by taking on new responsibilities and challenges. Camps offer
cognitive learning and social-emotional development opportunities for achievement.
4. NEW FRIENDSHIPS: Amidst the fun of camp games, songs, sw imming, canoeing and talent show s,
campers meet new friends and strengthen existing friendships. The relationships formed at camp are important and
lasting for many youth. This summer, combining several different communities allows children to meet new friends
outside of their own school experiences.
5. MEMORIES: Summer camp is an unforgettable experience that w ill give each camper memories (and
camp traditions) that will last a lifetime.
FREE BREAKFAST AND/OR LUNCH FOR ALL CAMPERS! (Excludes Round P ond Sailing Camp) The Summer
Food Service Program (SFSP) is a U.S. Department of Agriculture funded program to provide free meals for children
during the summer months.
And, to ensure that all youth have the chance to experience camp, both YMCAs offer financial assistance to those in
need. Those registering in the Boothbay Region should apply for financial assistance through the Boothbay Region
YMCA. Likewise, those from the CLC YMCA should apply at the CLC YMCA.
To learn more about summer camp programs through the Y, download this 2015 Summer Camp guide
at www.boothbayregionymca.org and www.clcymca.org.
The Boothbay Region Y and CLC Y - in partnership - have now increased the potential to give youth an enriching,
safe experience with caring staff and volunteers who model positive values that help build their kids’ character.

Develop Leadership Skills
Are you interested in learning how to be a camp

in an individual’s transition from a camper to a
potential staff member. CITs work in supervised
programs to develop strong leadership skills through
training, discussion, observation and practice. Their
new skills are directly applied to leadership
opportunities at camp. The CITs build friendships,
engage in new and traditional camp activities, and
develop a positive work ethic.
