Ready, Set Go!
This New Summer program is for girls and boys ages 4-8. This hand on program includes a week of exploration, collaboration and fun. Ready, Set, Go! allows children the opportunity to work and acquire gross motor skills while gaining self-confidence in a social engaging setting through age appropriate individual & cooperative games and activities. Children will foster and improve their gross motor skills so they can move freely in their environment with balance, coordination, comfort and self – confidence!

Arrival
Parents/guardians should park their car in a parking spot in the lower parking lot and walk their child in to the building each morning. Parents/guardians must drop their child off at The Burke Foundation Early Childhood Center at YWCA Princeton main entrance each day when they are dropping them off and picking them up.
Items To Bring Each Day
- a bag lunch (with ice pack)
- a bathing suit, towel, and a plastic bag with the child’s name on it for the wet suit (Monday and Thursday only)
- a change of clothes, cream sun block (NO SPRAY SUNBLOCK)
- water bottle with child’s name on it
- socks and sneakers for walking and playing (no sandals or flip-flops allowed)
Snacks
The YWCA will provide snacks for the children once a day for half-day campers and twice a day for full day campers. Snacks will consist of a fruit or veggie option, a cracker/cookie option and a water/juice option. If your child has an allergy and you would like to provide us with your own snacks, that is permissible and we will keep your child’s snack separate and safe for the week. Friday is fun day and we will serve ice pops in the afternoon.
Lunch
If your child is staying for the lunch hour or is a full day camper, parents are to provide a non-perishable lunch each day for their child. We do not have refrigeration for lunch boxes so please make sure that you include an ice pack in all lunch bags.
In consideration of the many food allergies children have today, the YWCA appreciates your cooperation with the elimination of any food products that contain nut or nut products from our programs.
FAQs:
Our plans changed — can I switch our schedule or withdraw my child?
Last minute changes present a challenge that can affect staffing, supply ordering, special events and registration processing. Therefore, a transfer fee of $25 applies if less than one week prior to the beginning of the month of service is given. Withdrawals are permitted any time but are subject to a $200 non-refundable fee (per child). Refunds will not be given for absences.
Are scholarships available for the Summer Program?
Financial scholarships are available on a first come, first served basis. To learn more, please reach out to Cassandra Mendoza at 609-497-2100 x324 or cmendoza@ywcaprinceton.org
