WHY CHOOSE THE Y DAY CAMPS? As Canada s largest camp provider, the Guelph Y offers a safe and inclusive camp experience for children ages 6 12. When you choose Guelph Y summer day camps, we provide the option between a traditional camp setting in the comfort of the Guelph Y or a one-of-a-kind unplugged camp experience at Guelph Lake. Whether you choose the traditional At The Y camp, or the one-of-a-kind unplugged setting at Camp Conestogo, all campers get the chance to learn new skills, try fun activities, and build lasting friendships in an inclusive and welcoming environment. CAMP STAFF Camp Counsellors & Camp Coordinators The Guelph Y hires camp counsellors who are fun, energetic and personally invested in ensuring a successful camp experience for each camper! It is our priority to provide an inclusive, fun and caring environment for your child each day at camp. All of our staff are certified in Standard First Aid & CPR-C, and receive HIGH FIVE Principles of Healthy Child Development training. Our counsellors undergo extensive training focused on leadership, inclusivity and how to help campers develop, grown and build confidence. Our Camp Coordinators provide support to our Counsellors, Inclusion staff and LIT s throughout the summer. It is the role of the Camp Coordinators to oversee the smooth operation of each camp day, plan and implement camp programming, and support the camp counsellors. Camp Inclusion Staff The main role of Inclusion Staff is to provide additional support for campers who may require it in order for them to be successful at camp. Inclusion Staff are specifically trained to provide support to counselors in dealing with difficult situations that arise throughout the day. Our Inclusion Staff are also trained in Standard First Aid & CPR-C, HIGH FIVE Principles of Healthy Child Development and receive specific inclusion training to be able to be best support children of all abilities.

CAMPERS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS/SKIC SUPPORTING KIDS IN CAMP Although the YMCA-YWCA of Guelph does not host a one-to-one support program, the Y has a partnership with the community organization Supporting Kids in Camp (SKIC). Supporting Kids in Camp (SKIC) provides children who have special needs with a trained and experienced one-to-one support worker so that they are able to attend the camp of their families` choice. There is no cost to families for this service as it is funded by the Ministry of Children and Youth Services. In fairness to all, this program is based on first come first serve basis and applications for a support worker are limited to one week per child during the summer program. Families may request to be placed on a waiting list for a second week. WHO CAN APPLY? Children who are under the age of 18 years old Who have two or more identified areas of need (physical, cognitive and behavioural exceptionalities) Living in the Guelph-Wellington area wanting to attend a day camp in the Guelph-Wellington area Requires support for successful inclusion at camp HOW TO APPLY FOR ONE-ON-ONE SUPPORT WITH SKIC 1.
