Registration Begins!

The winter weather is finally starting to break and that can only mean 1 thing! Camp is just around the corner! Registration for YMCA Camp Quinnipiac will begin on Sunday, March 1st at 9am at the Cheshire Community YMCA. For the entire month of March, if you register for a session of camp and pay for it in full, you will receive at5% discount on that session.

The staff and I are currently getting ready for a great summer and are planning out activities and projects for the themes this summer. We are all very excited about the theme for Session 6. The theme that week is Scuba's Survivor. I can't wait to see what our very own Scuba Steve has in store for us that week. If you are like the rest of the staff and myself you are probably wondering where he comes up with all of those great ideas!

If you have questions about the summer or have questions about registration please contact me at the Cheshire Community YMCA at (203) 272-3150 or mtedesco@southington-cheshireymca.org. You can also stop into any of our Open Houses. Below is the list of our Open Houses including their dates, times and locations.

Monday, March 9th from 6-7pm at the Cheshire Community YMCA

Camp is Just Around the Corner

Dear YMCA Camp Quinnipiac Families,

Happy New Year! We hope that 2009 is a year filled with health and happiness for you and your family. We are looking forward to another great year at YMCA Camp Quinnipiac and we have some big news for this upcoming summer of fun.

As an incentive to register for the YMCA Camp Quinnipiac experience we have adjusted our promotion that was advertised in the Cheshire Community YMCA Winter brochure. We have increased our promotional period to include the entire month of March. During the month of March if you register for a session(s) of camp and pay for it in full you will receive a 5% discount on that session(s). Registration will resume at a non-discounted rate starting on Wednesday, April 1st. As in the past any session, once it is registered for, will be able to be transferred until Thursday, April 30th.

Our YMCA recognizes that our families may endure tough times during this economic crisis and may have to make some difficult decisions. In the hope of making it a bit easier for you to continue to make the choice to give your child the YMCA Camp Quinnipiac experience, we have not increased prices this year. Also keep in mind that financial aid is available for families living in Cheshire.

The Southington-Cheshire Community YMCAs have been tirelessly working to upgrade their website to be more user friendly and to be more state-of-the-art. Please check out the website at http://www.southington-cheshireymca.org/. YMCA Camp Quinnipiac’s brochure and forms for the 2009 summer can be found there.

Have a great day!

Coach Mike
