YMCA ANTHONY BOWEN

DEAR PARENTS, Summer just wouldn’t be the same without the discovery and memories of the YMCA’s Day Camp program. For over 100 years, Metropolitan Washington children have come together for a summer of exploring nature, creativity, teamwork, new adventures, healthy living and positive friendships. In 2014, the spirit and tradition of YMCA Summer Camp continues! YMCA Day Camps are like none other. Every day, your child will be welcomed to a physically and emotionally stimulating environment. The activities they take part in will offer positive developmental experiences, bonds with each other and staff, and skill-building suited to their age. No matter the program

you choose, each camp experience incorporates academic skills and physical fitness. Y kids have the opportunity to build self-confidence and independence, while parents have peace of mind knowing their child is in a safe, enriching and fun place. Our counselors and programs have your child’s best interest in mind. And at the YMCA, he/ she is sure to have the most rewarding summer yet. Best wishes,

Angie L. Reese-Hawkins President and CEO YMCA of Metropolitan Washington
