01/07/2019

Frost Valley YMCA offers parents the unique opportunity to send their children on exciting real-world adventures during which children will develop wilderness skills, discover their resilience, and forge lifelong friendships. Frost Valley announces Meet and Greet Info Sessions for parents who wish to learn more about its Adventure Programs and Trips.

Frost Valley YMCA’s Adventure Camp promotes character development by challenging tweens and teens to try new experiences like hiking, climbing, backpacking, or paddling in awe-inspiring destinations across the United States. From these new experiences, campers discover a newfound self-confidence and resilience. Campers learn how to trust themselves and each other, as they work together to explore, problem-solve, and achieve common goals.

In addition to its already popular Adventure Trips, Frost Valley has added seven new trips for the summer of 2019. Frost Valley is excited to announce three new all-female leadership trips: Adirondack Paddler for seventh and eighth graders, Long Trail for eighth and ninth graders, and White Mountains Hike and Climb for ninth and tenth graders. Adirondack High Peaks and Main AT Adventure are new advanced trips for ninth through twelfth graders. Frost Valley’s new service trips, Adirondack Trail Builders and Catskill Farm Tour, offer ninth through twelfth graders the opportunity to earn 35 hours of community service. Interested families should visit our Adventure Camp page, call 845-985-2291, or attend a Meet and Greet or Open House for more information.
