Letter from the Director,
Thank
you for considering sending your child to YMCA Hargis Retreat’s Summer Day
Camp! Here at Hargis, you are participating in a camping program you can count on;
we strive to partner with you as parents to provide not just good supervision
and safety, but a place for campers to learn, grow, flourish, and, of course, have
fun. We work hard to select leaders who are positive adult role models for your
child and have demonstrated responsibility, maturity, and reliability. From the
counselors and bus drivers that we hire, to the number of campers per group, to
the activities that we offer, safety is always at the top of our list. At
Hargis we not only promote the YMCA’s four core values of caring, honesty, respect,
and responsibility we also strive to help them become more confident in themselves through the activities we do to the topics we discuss in chapel. Let Hargis help your child build a healthier, Spirit, Mind, and Body. All while making those forever lasting "summer camp" friendships along the way.
See
you soon,
FireFly
