YMCA of Middle TN

Our community will be forever changed by the floods of May 2010, and many families hurt by the floods will face significant financial pressures as they work to rebuild their homes and lives.

They and their children will continue to experience emotional stress as recovery continues into the summer months, but Y camps can provide a caring place for kids to feel safe and get a temporary respite from their families' difficulties. To that end, the YMCA has launched a "Recover Their Summer" campaign to provide financial assistance so families affected by flooding can send their kids to Y summer camp programs including Fun Company Summer Odyssey, YMCA Summer Day Camp and YMCA Camp Widjiwagan.

To Receive Assistance:
The YMCA offers summer day camp programs at 31 locations throughout the area, and a limited number of spots will be available to our community's youngest flood victims at each location.


For Camp Widjiwagan:
Call Camp Widjiwagan staff at 615) 360-2267 to inquire about available slots for flood victims.
