Contacting Your Child at Camp

There is no better feeling than receiving mail and care packages at camp! However, please do not send food to your child. There are several ways to contact your child at camp (please be sure to include your child’s full name on all correspondence):

Sending Letters & Packages
The BEST way to ensure that your child receives your letters and packages is bringing them with you on check-in day. You will have the opportunity to place them into bins that designate which day we will deliver them to your camper.

You may mail letters and packages to: YMCA Camp Campbell Gard, Attn: Child’s Name, PO Box 122, Overpeck, OH 45055.

Emailing Your Camper
You may send one-way email messages to your child. Please note that your camper will not have the ability to respond to emails.

Faxing Your Camper
You may fax letters to camp at 513-867-0127.

Calling Your Camper
When campers talk to their parents on the phone, it usually increases feelings of homesickness. Therefore, campers are not permitted to bring cell phones to camp, and there are not phones available for general camper use. If there are any challenges that require parent contact, the Camp Director will call you with your child. If you are concerned about your child, please feel free to call the Camp Office at 513-867-0600. We are happy to check on your camper and call you right back.

Visitor Policy
When parents visit their children at camp, it usually increases feelings of homesickness. Therefore, we discourage parents from visiting during the week. If you must visit, please call the Camp Office at 513-867-0600 at least 24 hours prior to arrival.
