Our Mission

Camp Knickerbocker is committed to providing an inclusive and welcoming environment that assures access for all. We are focused on creating and sustaining a camp program and culture that fully supports diversity and inclusion.

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging Statement

The Boothbay Region YMCA & Camp Knickerbocker is committed to evolving our understanding of the diversity in our community and seeks to eliminate barriers that prevent the full participation of people most impacted by inequity.

By prioritizing diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, we provide a welcoming environment where everyone feels that they belong.  We will focus on providing access to the Y for everyone in our community.

We commit to ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive and reach their full potential with dignity while feeling valued, respected, and appreciated.  We denounce any form of hate, discrimination, or oppression and work to educate members of our community about the importance of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging.
