Summer Camp

2008

School is almost out and a few of our early sessions have filled. It still is not too late to sign up for a session this summer. Sessions 3, 5 and 6 still have room as well as Teen Week, Appalacian Adventure and the Key West Adventure.

Summer Camp is much more than swimming, archery, paintball and camp fires. Summer Camp is about making positive relationships with others in a caring atmosphere and focusing on the YMCA core values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility.

The 2008 color brochures are available and you may call the camp office at (386) 985-4544, or email us at campwinona@daytonaymca.org, and ask for more information and a registration form. You may also download the brochure from our home page.

We hope to see you at camp this summer!

The Winona Experience...

Partners With Youth

Operation Purple Camp

YMCA Camp Winona is proud to host Operation Purple Camp. The Nationa Military Family Association develped this free summer camp program in response to the need for increased support for military children whose parents are or will be deployed in Iraq and Afganistan.

Operation Purple Camp provides a much needed respite from the worries of war that many of our Nation's children face each day their Mom or Dad is deployed. "NMFA is excited to work with the YMCA on this very worthwhile program,"said Nancy Alsheimer, NMFA Chairman of the Board. "Together we can make a difference in the lives of military children."

Operation Purple Camps will be hosted in 63 camps across the country to nearly 10,000 children thanks to a partnership with the Sierra Club Foundation and support from the Michael & Susan Dell Foundation.

Partners With Youth is a fundraising program that allows kids to go to camp. Last year, individuals raised over $42,000 dollars to help send kids to camp.

The decision-making is hard. Each family requesting a scholarship contacts the office, fills out an application and sends it back. The committee that reviews the applications and assigns scholarship amounts really sees the needs of many families in our community. Each year we helpe send between 100 - 150 kids to camp who would not have been able to attend.

You can give to Partners With Youth by contacting David Larrabee.. Every donation is tax-deductible and goes to a very worthy cause... kids!
