SUMMER CAMP PROGRAMS
2008 Summer Camp - Where your child can...
Be Good. Do Good. Feel Good.
For nearly a century, the YMCA has led the way as the nation's largest and most respected provider of summertime activities.
What makes Y Camps so special? For starters, Honesty, Respect, Responsibility and Caring are the cornerstones of every YMCA program.
In addition, the Y adds a unique component to help children develop positive identities, values and social skills. That component is know as "Developmental Assets". These are 40 essential character-building blocks that young people need to grow up to be healthy, competent, caring and responsible adults.
From traditional camp experiences to more targeted specialty camps, we've got a program that will delight every child - and parent. The YMCA's focus on Mind, Body and Spirit ensures your child will not only have fun and learn new skills, they'll be grounded in the ideals of respect for all and inclusiveness that are foundational to the Y. Learning good values has never been so much fun.
Sonoma County Family YMCA Mission Statement

American Camping Association
ACA accreditation is the best evidence parents have of a camp's commitment to
a safe and nurturing environment for their children. The Sonoma County Family
YMCA is proud to have our camps, excluding Caravans and Moving-On Camps,
accredited by the American Camping Association
(ACA). Developed exclusively
for the camp industry, this nationally recognized program focuses on program
quality, health and safety issues and requires us to review every facet of
our operation. The Sonoma County Family YMCA has voluntarily submitted to this
independent appraisal done by camp experts and has earned this mark of distinction.
