CAMP OCONEE

A PLACE TO LEARN, UNPLUG AND GROW

We believe in each child and their individual growth. It is our mission to focus on three areas of development: friendship, accomplishment and belonging. It is important to us that all campers have the chance to experience our core values: caring, honesty, respect, responsibility and faith.

• The Foothills Area YMCA is offering camp at two locations, one in Seneca, SC (South Cove) and one in Walhalla, SC (Walhalla Senior Center [old Walhalla Middle School]).
• Any child between the ages of 4 years old and 12 years old can register.
• Our summer sessions will begin the week of June 5th and our last session will be the week of July 24th with the last day being July 28th.
• Daily drop off starts at 7:30 am and ends at 9:00 am and daily pick up starts at 4:00 pm and all campers must be picked up by 5:30 pm.
• Activities this summer include: themed arts and crafts, small group games, skits, outdoor field games, swim times, in-house community service projects, small field trips (in house and out), and more. Every week a newsletter will be sent out that gives an idea of what will be happening each day of camp.
• Breakfast and Lunch will be served (provided by the School District of Oconee County).
• SDOC will NOT provide breakfast/lunch the weeks of July 3-7 and July 24-28. Participants attending during those weeks will need to bring a breakfast (if not eating at home) and a lunch.
• We will NOT have Summer Camp on the July 4th holiday, but will have camp every other day that week.
• T-Shirts are not guaranteed if your child is registered after May 5, 2023.
