Youth Camp

Rookie Camp (entering grades 2 - 3)

This four-day/three-night camp is the perfect adventure for the first-time camper. Rookie Camp introduces children to traditional camp activities and gives them a chance to make new friends and live together in a group setting. We maintain a low 6:1 camper-to-staff ratio to make sure that your child receives the individual attention and supervision needed.

Rookie Camp Fees 2010

Our three-tier rate structure, based on the actual cost of camp, also addresses the needs of families with financial challenges. No paperwork or verification is required; simply select the rate appropriate for you. This information is completely confidential.

• Tier 1 reflects the full cost of sending a camper to the program selected. If you are able to pay this amount, please do. Thank you.
• Tier 2 is a partially subsidized rate to help families who can't afford the full cost of the camp program. Choose this rate if your family needs a partial subsidy.
• Tier 3 represents a bigger subsidy for families who need further assistance to send a child to camp. Choose this rate if your family needs it.

Tier I         Tier II       Tier III 
$358         $284        $ 252

 To reserve your child's space:

• Complete the registration and health form
• Pay the YMCA membership fee (if not already a member)
• Pay a minimum $75 per child per week deposit 

The membership fee and deposits are nonrefundable and nontransferable. The balance of the payment is due two weeks before the camp session starts. If you don’t pay on time, you will lose your deposits and reservation without notice. Fees will be refunded (less deposit) if a reservation is cancelled at least two weeks before the camp session starts. Cancellations after that date are not refunded. If illness or injury prevents your child from attending camp, a doctor's note is needed before the session starts to get a refund (less deposit). Fees are not refunded if a camper is sent home due to behavior problems during the session. 

YMCA MEMBERSHIP

A current YMCA membership is needed before your child can attend Camp Loma Mar. Basic membership costs $35 for a year. Members may participate in YMCA programs such as sports programs and swim lessons, in addition to camp. If your child has a valid membership at another YMCA, you do not need to purchase an additional membership. Simply send a copy of their card or membership verification with their registration. For Family Camp, only one member of the family is required to have a membership. The YMCA membership requirement is waived for Humboldt County residents.
