FAIRVIEW LAKE YMCA CAMPS
Established 1915
Welcome to Fairview Lake YMCA Camps!
Dear Parents,
I am honored to welcome you into our Fairview Lake YMCA Camp family.
For 106 years, we have been building community and friendship, teaching
skills and providing a safe and nurturing home away from home for
campers from around the country and around the world.
Camp has a significant place in my own story. Through camp I found
strong role models, learned valuable lessons, and met lifelong friends.
Our goal here at Fairview is to provide all of that, and more, to your
child.
Camp is a place where a child can slide down a ninety-foot water slide,
learn to identify three different salamanders, come in 4th in a tick-tack-
toe tournament, eat two helpings of spaghetti and meatballs, make a
new friend from 3,000 miles away, and see a shooting star – all before
heading back to their cabin for bed. Camp is also a place where a child
can feel safe and loved, express themselves freely, develop their values
and learn more about the world around them.
I encourage everyone to come visit us at camp, and see why life is truly
better at the lake.
Marc Koch
Executive Director
Y For All - The Y is a leading 50c(3) nonprofit organization for youth
development, healthy living and social responsibility. Through funds raised
from the Annual Campaign and special events, we are able to provide
financial assistance to qualifying individuals and families to that everyone

EVERYONE
At Fairview Lake YMCA Camps, we’re for ALL. We welcome campers and staff from around the
country and around the world, and celebrate our diversity. Our Core Values of Honesty, Caring,
Respect and Responsibility guide us in creating an inclusive, safe, adventurous setting.
Here, campers can grow, play and thrive.
CAMP & COVID-19
Fairview Lake YMCA Camps is working closely with the CDC, American Camp Association,
the NJ Heath Department and Sussex County Health Department to plan a safe and healthy
summer for our campers and staff. In the summer of 2020, we developed a playbook which
we used to plan and run a successful and safe program at Blue Mountain Day Camp. As we
receive more guidance for the summer of 2021, we will update our policies and procedures
so they go above and beyond these safety guidelines. We will provide your child with the
safest camp experience possible.
Camp provides children with a safe place to learn, explore and grow, and this will be more
important than ever in the summer of 2021. Our goals to foster friendships, teach new
skills, boost confidence, and promote joy remain unchanged. We encourage families to reach
out to camp if they have any questions or concerns about camp programming.
OUR MISSION:
Strengthen community through
youth development, healthy living,
4 and social responsibility.

18 fairviewlake@metroymcas.org 973-383-2982WHY WE BELIEVE IN A SCREEN FREE SUMMER
If you haven’t downloaded it yet, our Family Handbook is a great resource for parents of campers, and
parents of future campers. It’s full of dates, times, reminders, rules, expectations, and one of our most
important policies we have here at camp: we are screen free.
Beyond the obvious that cellphones and tablets are extraordinarily expensive and delicate electronics,
and that service is fairly spotty here on our property, there are two big reasons for our screen-free
policy.
1) We want our campers to develop authentic and strong
relationships with the people and places they physically
interact with.
2) We want to support campers in growing their
independence and gaining problem solving skills by creating
a community of peers for support.
Let’s face it, social interactions can be hard, and many
kids choose to keep interactions online. This can lead
to bullying, isolation, and anxiety. By taking away the
electronic barrier, campers spend time together - learning
to navigate relationships, reading emotions, building
community and supporting each other. Campers gain
confidence in their social skills, and are more likely to
develop strong relationships once they return home. There is less pressure and more time to live in the
moment.
We want our campers to appreciate the physical world around them. No screen can duplicate a
shooting star streaking across the sky, or the smell of wood smoke and the sound of laughter around
a campfire. By keeping camp screen free, children appreciate the sunset after a full day of fun, and the
thrill of a water slide race with a friend – something you’d never find on the internet.
Our second goal is to help our campers grow their independence and build a community. Campers who
overcome problems feel pride, a sense of accomplishment and gain self-esteem – all building blocks
for success later in life. Our staff are trained to help campers solve problems - they don’t solve the
problem for them. Campers learn to support each other through
tough spots – navigating a first crush, overcoming a fear, or being
away from home for the first time. This community they create will be
one they can lean on for the rest of their
lives.
There is nothing better than hearing
your name being chanted because you’ve
finally reached the top of the climbing
wall, getting high fives for your first bull’s
eye at the archery range, or feeling the
refreshing rush of a cannonball into the
lake. By building strong relationships,
supporting each other and appreciating
the world around them, campers are
happier, more resilient and will have more
fun – the most important part of camp!2021 CAMPS, DATES AND RATES
