Summer Day
Camp at Ardmore strives to provide
an enriching summer experience for every
child. Through a variety of exciting theme
weeks, campers will participate in sports of
all sorts, crafts, science, technology
activities, specialty clubs, field trips and
much, much more! Your child will leave each
session having had the opportunity to
discover new interests and talents, make new
friends, learn to work and play together and
create life-long memories.

Camp Staff
The heart of our summer
programs at Boys & Girls Clubs of Bellevue is our
dedicated and caring staff. Staff members are carefully
selected for their experience, skill, and ability
working with children. All of our staff members are
required to participate in a week-long training session
prior to the start of camp. A low camper-to-staff ratio
ensures that each camper receives personal attention and
guidance for the duration of their camp experience. The
majority of our staff have spent many summers at our
Club if not only as staff, but as campers themselves.
Jr. Staff Program at
Camp Ardmore
Boys
and Girls Clubs of Bellevue’s Jr. Staff program is
designed for members entering grades 10-12 who have a
desire to work with younger children and be peer
leaders. The program includes opportunities for members
to participate in ‘traditional’ camp activities under
the supervision of professional staff. Jr. Staff will
develop their leadership skills as they lead camp
activities, and assist staff with the supervision of
younger members. Members that complete the program will
have a new set of leadership skill as well as the
confidence to try new leadership positions in other
areas of their lives.
Cost: $25 per
session + current membership
Financial Assistance
Boys & Girls Club of
Bellevue, in conjunction with other youth services, has
scholarships available for kids to attend summer camp.
Low to moderate income families may apply for a 2008
scholarship at our Main Office. The Club reserves the
right to make sure that as many kids as possible get the
opportunity to attend summer camp. Therefore, we limit
scholarships to only two camp sessions.
