A MESSAGE FROM THE <strong>CAMP</strong>ING SERVICES DIRECTOR...<br />
Camp Sturtevant is proud to offer summer programming that helps all campers increase their selfesteem,<br />
confidence, and personal growth through progressive and age-appropriate activities. Playing<br />
is a crucial part of any child’s development and we have no shortage of that during a summer at Camp<br />
Sturtevant! As I return to participate in another fantastic year of YMCA summer camp, along with<br />
enthusiastic staff of new and returning camp counselors, I am more than excited to bring the camp<br />
experience to the youth of our community. Experiencing camp is a priceless opportunity, and I have seen<br />
first hand how it has changed lives! The energy at Camp Sturtevant is contagious and I am honored serve<br />
our community within this beautiful space.<br />
One of our biggest changes this year is our extended check in time! We have heard your feedback<br />
and we are happy to offer check in time as early as 6:30am at our YMCA Branch locations! Also new<br />
to camp is the addition of our Garden Center. It is incredibly crucial for campers to get their hands in the<br />
dirt and it is why we are bringing our Woodson YMCA Community Garden program out<br />
to camp. We know you have many choices to make in regards to your child’s activities<br />
this summer. We are always here to help, please contact us with any questions. It’s<br />
going to be a great season. Camp is just like regular life… only better!<br />
With Gratitude,<br />

Designed for the older camper, Leadership Camp is a natural<br />
extension of the Camp Sturtevant experience. Recognizing<br />

it is all the more meaningful because it is shared with<br />
others. This is a unique camping experience, enhancing the<br />
development of outdoor living skills, natural awareness, and<br />
close relationships with others.<br />
Leadership Camp offers week long experiences built around<br />
3 and 4-day trips around the state of Wisconsin. Trips to<br />
the Porcupine Mountains, Northwoods region, Peshtigo River,<br />
State Parks and National Recreation areas highlight the<br />
summer.<br />

Financial Assistance<br />
Understanding that families have differing abilities to pay, we pride ourselves in working with and extending the opportunity<br />
to all children and families the chance to experience a YMCA Camp program. Preschool Camps, Day Camp, and Half Day<br />
programs are licensed through the State of Wisconsin and therefore able to accept families that receive assistance through<br />
the Department of Social Services. As always, Financial Assistance in the form of full and half scholarships is offered to<br />
qualifying participants through the YMCA Community Partners Campaign. Families who would qualify for a school district’s<br />
Free and Reduced Lunch Program will qualify for Financial Assistance for camp.<br />
Open Admission Policy & Special Needs Campers<br />
YMCA Camps are operated in accordance with all state and federal policies, which prohibit discrimination on the basis of<br />
race, color, sex, age, disability, religion or national origin. YMCA Camps are designed to provide accessibility for children with<br />
moderate visual, auditory, orthopedic, mental or emotional challenges. Please discuss all situations with the Camp Director<br />
prior to registering.<br />
