Registration for Hunterdon County YMCA Summer Day Camps has
started. This year some new and exciting programs will be offered in addition to the
popular traditional camp options. YMCA camps offer youth, ages 4 – 12, fun and unique
experiences with an opportunity to explore the outdoors, meet new friends, discover new
interests and create memories that last a lifetime!
Attending HCY summer camp is a wonderful opportunity for youth to keep their
minds and bodies active. According to Kristin Heimall, Senior Program Director, "Every
summer I see amazing things happen at our camps. Our dynamic and energetic staff
provide our campers with an incredible experience. I've seen new friends sit and chat
away as their ice-cream melts, I've seen counselors sit in the grass with a guitar and
teach kids a new song, and I've seen our team of Counselors in Training line up on the
third-base line to give high-fives to a 5 year old who just kicked the ball for the first
time. Camp is all about growing, learning, having fun and making friends."
Because each child is unique, the HCY offers a variety of camp experiences.
Traditional camp is held at both Camp Carr in Clinton Township and South Camp at
South Hunterdon High School in Lambertville. Sports Camp is held at the Deer Path
Branch in Flemington and Pre-Kamp for Preschoolers is held at the Round Valley Branch
in Annandale. There are also many specialty camp options, including Travel Camp,
Horseback Riding, Mad Science, Bricks 4 Kidz (Lego), Baseball, Dance, Tennis, Flag
Football, Extreme Sports, Soccer and Lacrosse. New options this year include Nature
Camp, NERF Camp, Super Hero and Ninja Warrior Camp.
A Counselor in Training Program is available for children ages 13 – 14 at Camp
Carr, Sports Camp and South Camp. This program gives youth the opportunity to learn
leadership skills, share what they have learned and be a role model for younger campers.
Please note: this year there is special pricing for siblings! To ensure that all youth have
the chance to experience camp, the Hunterdon County YMCA offers financial assistance
to those in need. To learn more about YMCA day camps, call: 908.782.1030
or visit: www.hcymca.org. Registration can be completed at either the Deer Path
Branch, 144 West Woodschurch Road in Flemington or the Round Valley Branch, 1410
Rt. 22 West in Annandale.
