Print a black and white 2010 camp guide.

Traditional Summer Day Camp is held outside and onsite each day from 9am to 4pm, in the 14 acres of woods directly behind the Blue Ash YMCA. Each day, campers learn new skills as they explore nature and make new friends, as well as participate in themed activities and camp traditions like Rock Soup and the Bead Ceremony. Campers swim each day and need a nutritious packed lunch. Each week the campers will attend a field trip or a unique experience is brought to Camp Creekwood. For more detailed information about Day Camp, check the website, give us a call, or stop by the Blue Ash YMCA! Hamilton County Vouchers accepted.

*Traditional Day Camp is strictly for school age children through the age of 11. (They must have completed Kindergarten)

PRE AND POST CAMP
Pre- and Post-Camp are offered for busy parents. This program is held all weeks for school age children through age of 12. Drop off our kids as early as 6:30am and pick them up as late as 6:00pm. A completed registration packet is due at the time of registration, including a shot record.Hamilton County vouchers accepted, financial assistance available.

TEEN CAMP
This camp is tailored to the evolving growth of the teenager, ages 12 - 14. Emphasis on leadership development, cultural awareness, and self-worth are combined with traditional camp fun. Teen campers mentor Pioneer Campers twice a week and have one additional field trip per week. When they are not on a field trip, the campers will swim each day.

COUNSELOR IN TRAINING (CIT)
Teens, ages 13 - 15 who are hoping to be future camp staff have the opportunity to get advanced training. The CIT program helps teens begin to develop the values, knowledge, skills and experience needed to be qualified and dedicated Camp Creekwood staff members in the future. It is also a perfect way for teens to serve camp and grow. Each week, CITs work with counselors, meet with their administrative coordinator and receive supportive supervision and evaluation. Those interested must complete both a camper and CIT application and will go through the interview process. Strong CITs are recommended to return for further development or are given a referral to be on staff the following summer as a Junior Counselor. Participation in the CITs does not guarantee a staff position in the future, but it is favorable.

PRESCHOOL CAMP
A half-day camp is available for the little ones. These themed weeks will focus on new learning skills and fun. It runs from 9:00am-12:00pm. A completed registration packet and medical form are due upon registration.
