Southern District YMCA-Camp Lincoln

Ymca camp Lincoln - ymca camp Lincoln focuses on nurturing the potential of every youth and teen. We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to discover who they are and what they can achieve. At camp Lincoln, children develop talents, grow sportsmanship and leadership skills, and most importantly, learn how to be themselves. In this program area that focuses on youth development, camp uses the outdoors to teach healthy living, character development, social growth, fitness, water safety and environmental education. At ymca camp Lincoln, no child has ever been turned away because they could not afford to pay. In partnership with kingston lake association and the town of kingston, the ymca champions conservation, environmental education and social responsibility.

Ymca school age child care - the mission of the ymca is realized in the lives of the children we serve in our state-licensed before and after school programs where the children receive academic assistance, participate in character development, health and wellness, homework support, literacy, stem (science, technology, engineering and math), service learning, and social competence and conflict resolution. The y partners with school districts to ensure affordable care so that children of working families learn foundational skills, develop healthy, trusting relationships and build self-reliance through the ymca values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility. The ymca offers tuition assistance for parents who cannot afford the full cost of child care, ensuring every family has access to vital before and after school care. In addition to before and after school care, this program operates an eight-week summer camp designed to build on the progress students make during the school year, provide them with engaging, fun, educational field trips and take twice-weekly trips to camp Lincoln.
