The
clock is ticking and the days until camp are counting down! The
Staff and
Directors at YMCA of Orange are very excited to start gearing up for Camp
Oakes this
year, and we hope you are too. We have created this page to distribute
information,
dates, and registration forms for the Camp Oakes 2011 experience.
The buses leave the YMCA on Saturday, July 3oth, and we have the most
sought after time slot that Camp Oakes has to offer. We encourage
you to register early, mark your calendars, and gear up for a week full
of memories that will make the rest of your summer seem boring!
Registration
for Camp Oakes 2011 has begun and spaces are quickly filling up. Applications
and other forms are available at the links below to get you started on
registering your child for camp this year. The annual $45 registration/membership
fee and a non-refundable $100 deposit are required to reserve your child's
spot. Should your child decide not to attend camp, your registration/membership
fee will be refunded.
