WHERE ADVENTURE BEGINS Overnight Camp YMCA CAMP SILVER BEACH

YMCA CAMP SILVER BEACH DREAM DESTINATION ON VIRGINIA S EASTERN SHORE At YMCA Camp Silver Beach, everything s included all your favorite foods, all your favorite sports and even all your favorite colors (if you like green trees, blue water and golden sunsets, that is). Located on Virginia s Eastern Shore, YMCA Camp Silver Beach is 151 amazing acres filled with forests, trees and wetlands and is surrounded by the seriously beautiful Chesapeake Bay. This is true paradise and best of all, it s just for kids and teens (and, okay, some pretty awesome counselors, lifeguards and instructors too). CSB is the place to be! Counselors and campers from all over journey to YMCA Camp Silver Beach each summer to make memories and friendships that last a lifetime. Set on 151 acres on the scenic Chesapeake Bay, you will experience water and land activities that will encourage and challenge you along the way. These include swimming, sailing, boating, climbing, zipping, skating, arts, science, drama and more. What dog tag awards will you earn? Campers enjoy fun-filled events including cabin nights, talent shows, ice cream socials, camp fires, House days and more. Will you be in House Fire Fly, Blue Crab, Pine or Osprey? As the summer season approaches the staff and I are working to enrich your Chesapeake Bay adventure by providing several new specialty camps. These programs were piloted in 2017 and are intended to provide a new experience for our tenured campers in grade 6 and up. These specialty camps will allow campers to gain a greater focus and knowledge base in programs like sailing, motor boating, lifeguarding and culinary arts. If it s an entirely new experience you re after try one of our Expedition camps. Does your camper like to go hiking and participate in white water rafting, paddle boarding or kayaking and sleeping in tents? Then our expedition camps are the programs for them. What adventure will your camper choose? Where will it lead them? I can t wait to welcome you to camp! Danny Vestal, Executive Director

WATER WATER EVERYWHERE You name the water sport, we ll name you ten more: paddle boarding, sailing, water skiing, banana boating, kneeboarding, wakeboard ing hey, we could keep this up all day. Speaking of all day, you ll find eagle-eyed CSB lifeguards on duty at all times. They know how to make it fun and keep it safe. After all, each one undergoes hours of training and practice with the nation s premiere water safety organization that s right: the Y. After enjoying all the Chesapeake Bay has to offer will you be looking for a nice, lazy day by the pool? Okay, but good luck just lounging around when there s a big water volleyball game going on and they re yelling for you to join in, or your friend s knees are knocking as she gets ready for her first 90-foot slide down Wet Willie, or the spray park is calling your name under the sultry summer sun. You can relax later. For now, you ve got two magnificent pools and a heart-thumping water slide calling your name. Camp Silver Beach to me is like a whole new world. A world where all you re concerned about is staying on the banana boat and what s for lunch. It s an escape. Sarah, age 14

REACH NEW HEIGHTS You re always up for a challenge, right? Imagine a climb straight up to the sky and then soaring across the heart of camp. That s our Alpine Tower adventure with giant swing and zip line! Not to worry, our counselors have their feet on the ground and know just what to do to encourage you and keep you safe. Safety always comes first you ll be outfitted in safety gear by our certified guides and instructed on basics from helmet to harness. At YMCA Camp Silver Beach, you ll develop trust and discover just how easy it is to handle life s little ups and downs when we re all in it together. DISCOVER We re wild about wildlife at YMCA Camp Silver Beach. You ll love discovering nature s hidden treasures in the water and woods. In fact, everything at camp is about discovery. Picture yourself tie-dying a tee. Taking up karate. Trying your hand at a new skill like archery. And, of course, talking about your awesome day over s mores around the campfire. Show off your kick flips and learn some new tricks at Olliewood Skate Park.

TAKE ADVENTURE TO THE NEXT LEVEL CSB Expedition Camps give rising 8th 11th graders the opportunity to find new adventures. Campers will spend most of their week off site hiking, camping, and building relationships through outdoor adventures. All gear will be provided. ROCK & RAFT The New River Gorge in West Virginia provides many opportunities for outdoor adventure including hiking, climbing and white water rafting. Each day will be a different adventure as campers get to sample much of what the area has to offer. This is a great trip for campers who want to push themselves and want to try several different activities. COASTAL TREK Campers will travel to North Carolina, an area with lots of flat easy trails, allowing campers to focus on using their skills and spend a day kayaking on the back bays. Campers looking to learn outdoor skills or get an introduction to outdoor adventure will enjoy this trip. BLUE RIDGE HIKE After leaving CSB, campers will be in the back country testing their skills at primitive sites for the week. Under the guidance of our staff, campers will push themselves and, in the process, gain a new appreciation for the natural beauty surrounding their excursion.

SPECIALIZE YOUR EXPERIENCE SKI SCHOOL Spend half a day learning to knee board, wake board or water ski. This is a great introduction to water sports. SAILING Sailing lessons in the classroom and on the water will prepare you to sail your own boat. WATER SPORTS Enjoy a week of water-skiing, knee boarding and wakeboarding. This is a great option for campers to build on their ski school experience. BOATING After learning the rules of the waterway, get behind the wheel and earn a Virginia Boaters License!

GET MORE OUT OF CSB TWO WEEK CAMP Rising 6th 9th Graders stay with the same counselors and cottage mates for a deeper camp experience. There are more sunsets, more activities and more skill development during our two-week sessions. Most importantly, you ll have more time to forge bonds of friendship that are the heart of YMCA Camp Silver Beach. TEENS LEADERSHIP EXPERIENCES TEEN ADVENTURE CAMP Rising 9th 11th graders come together for three weeks of adventure and fun, while forming their own community here at camp. Teen Adventure Camp combines elements of leadership training, community service and personal growth. LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT Rising Juniors spend three weeks developing leadership skills through handson workshops, a hiking trip and working alongside counselors. This is a great program for campers wanting to one day work as a counselor at CSB. TRADITION Our House Tradition gives the campers, new or returning, young or old, a sense of belonging here at CSB that will continue throughout their camping years. Our houses, Osprey, Firefly, Pine and Blue Crab, all have their own spirit. This unique set-up provides leadership opportunities for the older kids, and a chance for children of all ages and backgrounds to build relationships that can last a lifetime. After my experience at Camp Silver Beach, I plan on finding a Food Bank near my home so I can get a chance to give back to the needy. Josh, age 11
