Leadership

The foundation of a safe and transformative Camp experience is the staff. Our counselors are carefully selected and over 60% of them grew up through our summer camp’s leadership development sequence. We require an extensive Orientation and Skill Building week before the summer starts so that everyone knows the best practices to help your child have a safe, successful experience. All staff undergo three separate background checks against state and federal fingerprint databases and three verbal character reference checks. This is a more rigorous screening than most camps do, and compares with the process used to vet teachers.

Our senior leadership are camping professionals who feel honored to partner with parents administrating Camp Fitch YMCA  and it’s year-round programs. Our top seasonal leadership are passionate educators who have years of classroom and administrative experience.
