Camp
staff help build strong kids!
Many staff are former campers touched
by their memorable Frost Valley experience. This means they are aware
of how camp should be through the eyes of your children and are able to emulate
it. Young adults also travel from around the country and from around the
world to join our Frost Valley YMCA summer staff. Every staff member brings
a bit of flavor and excitement to our team, diverse in background and skill.
Frost Valley YMCA summer staff have over an 80% retention rate, double of most
other camps!

Each potential staff member must complete
an application, gather three references and participate in an interview with
a director. Candidates must exhibit experience with youth, energy, motivation,
the ability to work with others, and a willingness to learn and share with children
while at the same time, creating a safe environment. Upon successful completion
of an interview, Frost Valley YMCA conducts vigorous background checks on all
applicants, obtains a full criminal history report and diligently verifies reference.
Staff also undergo a throrough week-long orientation and training, covering
topics such as positive discipline, safety and risk management, teaching techniques
and working with different age groups
Frost Valley
YMCA absolutely prohibits camp staff use of illegal drugs and alcohol.
