21FAQ’s
WHAT SHOULD I PACK?
Water bottle • Sunscreen • Closed-toe shoes • Bathing Suit • Towel • Additional sports equipment, if needed
DO I NEED TO PACK A LUNCH?
Lunches are provided at no additional cost by Healthy Lincoln County each day. If your child has dietary
restrictions and you would like to send them to camp with a lunch, feel free to do so; however, please be aware
that there will be no refrigerator or microwave available for use.
WHAT IF MY CHILD IS SICK?
Please keep your child home if they are running a fever, are fighting off a cold, or have been physically sick 6
hours prior to the beginning of the day. We don’t want to spread germs, and we would rather you keep your child
home rather than us calling for you to pick them up from camp.
WHERE DO I PICK UP/DROP OFF MY CHILD?
Our Camp Guide has pick-up/drop-off locations for each camp, but here’s a general idea of where/when you can
pick-up/drop-off your camper:
If you are in Damariscotta, the drop-off destination is the CLC YMCA for any of their camp programs.
• The bus will take campers to Camp Knickerbocker if that is the program they are signed up for. The bus will
also return your campers to the CLC YMCA around 4:00pm.
• If your child is signed up for a CLC Specialty Camp, they will remain at the CLC YMCA.
• If your child needs before/after care (7:30am-9am or 3:30pm-5pm), the pick-up and drop-off locations
remain the same.
• If your camper is enrolled in Theatre Camps, the bus will still take them to the appropriate location from the
CLC YMCA.
• If you are in Boothbay, the pick-up/drop-off destination is Camp Knickerbocker, unless the program you have
signed up for specifies otherwise.
• If you are enrolled in Theatre Camps, the pick-up/drop off destination will be the Boothbay Region YMCA
Annex, unless your child is enrolled in before/after care. If they are enrolled for extended day care, the
location will be Camp Knickerbocker.
WHAT IF I NEED BEFORE CARE AND AFTER CARE?
We are all about supporting working families in our community. We understand that your child might need to be
dropped off early or picked up later than the day camp schedule. Before care will begin as early as 7:30am each
weekday, and extended after care will end at 5pm each weekday.
FREE SUMMER MEALS
The USDA Summer Food Service Program through Healthy Lincoln County and the YMCAs offer optional free,
nutritious breakfasts and lunches. At Camp K, breakfast is served from 7:30-8:30am, so please plan accordingly.
Lunch will be served from 12-1pm. Breakfasts and lunches will also be available at the CLC YMCA; lunch only is
available at the BRYMCA between 11:30am and 12:30pm.
CAMP DATES & HOURS OF OPERATION
The YMCA offers 10 weeks of summer camps: Monday-Friday from June 21-August 27.
Opening Ceremonies: 9am
Closing Ceremonies & Pick-up: 3:30pm
Extended Care: Offered on-site at Camp K at no additional cost from 7:30-9am and 3:30-5pm. 22DID YOU KNOW...
• The very first summer camp in the USA was created by the YMCA in 1885 with a mission to provide a
friendly environment for youngsters to make friends, build confidence, and grown in self-reliance.
• When Camp K was developed 100 years later in 1985, the mission remained the same and expanded
to include leadership counselor roles for young adults who have an opportunity to learn how to lead
in a safe and supportive environment.
The Boothbay YMCA is committed to providing access to anyone who wants to experience camp and
subsidizes 40% of camper tuition, including free tuition for those most in need. The Camp K Fund is
essential to providing financial aid for all and supporting summer camp on our unique and beautiful
Knickerbocker campus.
Please consider supporting our youth & young adults with a donation to the Camp K Fund.
