At YMCA Cedar Glen, we believe that the most important part of camping is the campers. That’s why we make sure to provide all our campers with the support, attention, and care they need throughout their stay with us. To ensure our campers stay safe and have fun, we hire experienced and caring counsellors who possess:
- CPR and Standard First Aid qualifications
- National Lifesaving Society qualifications
- A minimum of one week of dedicated training plus ongoing training and coaching throughout the summer
- Outdoor Education specialists are "Ropes" certified, have Outdoor Education backgrounds, emergency first aid training and wilderness first aid training.
With a counsellor to camper ratio of 7 to 1, YMCA Cedar Glen has a solid staff:
- An experienced Camp Director
- Aquatics Director
- Recreation activity specialists
- Approximately 30 camp counselors that include YMCA staff and other professionals, recent graduates, and trained university, college, and high school students
Together, we work to make sure every camper enjoys a fun and rewarding camp experience that they will cherish forever!
