BEST SUMMER EVER! THE BETTER YOU BELONGS HERE. NEW NAME! QUIRK CARES ABOUT KIDS. 2019 CAMP QUIRK South Shore YMCA - Quincy Branch Located at Snug Harbor Elementary School www.ssymca.org

WELCOME TO CAMP QUIRK. A NEW NAME. AN EXCITING FUTURE. We are pleased to announce that the Quincy YMCA Summer Day Camp program has been named Camp Quirk in honor of Dan Quirk s generous commitment to Quincy kids and our community. Thank you, Mr. Quirk, for ensuring a bright future for the children of Quincy for years to come. 2 SUMMER 2019 CAMP QUIRK SOUTH SHORE YMCA

DEAR PARENT/GUARDIAN: Welcome to the Camp Quirk. As you read this, we are excited to be planning the BEST SUMMER EVER for our campers and we hope that your children join us! Summer is a time to enjoy the warm weather, hang out with friends, swim and play, but at camp, the possibilities are endless. Camp is a place to make friends, and actively explore your imagination. The support and encouragement from positive adult role models, come together to boost confidence, self-esteem, social skills and overall emotional intelligence for our campers. At camp you are able to create the BEST SUMMER experience. From golf to gaga ball, swimming to surfing, our wide variety of programs truly provide something for everyone so make sure you check out all of our art, sports and specialty camp offerings. We look forward to seeing you this summer. Phil Gay Director of Day Camps philg@ssymca.org OUR STAFF & PHILOSOPHY We hire positive role models at our camp and we like to tell everyone that s why it s on our shirts. Our counselors are made up of high school & college students, teachers and adults with experiential learning, camping and recreational backgrounds. Our philosophy is that we must make the most of our opportunity to have a positive influence on the lives of our campers. Everything we do at camp is guided by the firm belief that we are responsible for the children we lead. Every day we teach our core values of honesty, caring, respect, responsibility, fun and friendship and we live by the motto Make a friend, make a summer. At Camp Quirk, we seek to provide our campers with a safe and engaging summer experience that builds community and the memories that will last a lifetime. The counselors create a positive environment for the kids. They connect well with the children and have a lot of energy. - Camp Parent My girls had fun, felt safe and made friends. - Camp Parent INCLUSION STARTS HERE At Camp Quirk we support a traditional camp environment that is welcoming to all campers. By partnering with families and identified support systems campers with developmental or other challenges will be provided with the opportunity for a successful camp experience. Through the National Inclusion Project partnership, we are able to offer inclusion training for all camp staff and group support by designated inclusion counselors under the guidance of Inclusion Coordinator. Campers are fully integrated into this traditional day camp experience and should be able to participate independently into standard staff ratios (6 years and under 1:5, 7 years and above - 1:10). Camp Quirk is an outdoor camp with natural terrain. Campers should be able to move between sites independently. In order to ensure success at camp, please indicate interest in accessing inclusion supports when registering for camp. A staff member will contact you to learn more about your child and to discuss the type of supports needed to make the experience successful for your camper. *If it is determined that a camper requires more supports than the established ratios our Inclusion Coordinator will work with the families to explore support options.
