ABOUT CAMP THUNDERMOON

GENERAL INFORMATION

Camp Thundermoon is held at Willard Elementary School in Berlin,

CT. Our camp program utilizes various areas of the facility includ-

ing indoor/outdoor spaces and the playground. No Y membership

required, open to all! However having a Meriden-New Britain-Berlin Y

membership will help save you money.

HOW DOES CAMP WORK?

We group our campers into different units based on age. Each unit is assigned a director and at least one counselor who oversee the group. We strive to maintain a ratio of campers to counselors that meets or exceeds the State of CT regulations. Our camp is a drop-off and pick-up program in Berlin. New Britain families have the option of bus trans-portation for an additional fee.

ACTIVITIES

Campers will participate in a variety of fun and age appropriate

activities, all based around the weekly theme. Our focus for fun is

within three key areas of Spirit (Music & the Arts), Mind (Science/

Reading), and Body (Health/Wellness).

SWIMMING & MORE AT OUR Y FACILITY

Each Unit will visit the New Britain YMCA or Meriden YMCA facility to

swim twice a week (Monday through Thursday). Bus transportation is

provided and will leave camp by 9:30 AM on swim days. Swim time

includes group swim lessons and free swim time. Campers will also

enjoy organized gym games and will get to use the indoor rock wall. All

activities are supervised by Camp Staff, certified Rock Wall Staff, and

certified Lifeguards. Campers will return to camp by 12:30 PM to have

lunch and enjoy the rest of the afternoon activities.

FIELD TRIPS & MORE!

Field trips are a great addition to our camp program. Typically field

trips are on a Friday of a field trip week. There is a minimal cost per

camper to attend most field trips. A detailed permission slip will be

sent home with campers at the beginning of that session. During non-

field trip weeks, we’ll have a camp show for friends and family to enjoy

and/or an all camp activity that goes with the weekly theme.

By signing this form, I agree to pay the amount due the MONDAY BEFORE each new session of camp. It will be my responsibility to notify the New Britain-Berlin YMCA in the event that I cancel my credit/debit card. I will also notify the Y when I receive a new expiration date on my card. If for some reason a transaction will not post (i.e. account closed, account suspended, insufficient funds), I understand that I will be charged a $20.00 fee. I under-stand that if my payment isn’t received prior to the start of the next session, then my child won’t be able to attend YMCA Camp Thundermoon that session.
