“We’re sitting at 104 right now, and so we’ve had to make this decision to reduce capacity at two of them and cancel one at Allan A. Greenleaf.” Tansley Woods Community Centre in Burlington and Camp Chippewa at Christie Lake Conservation Area in Dundas are the camps affected by capacity changes.The YMCA exec said “staffing was in place” at one point this year but dropped due to a couple of trends that have seen staff opt out.“One of them is that many offers that we put out there, about 25 in fact, and individuals elected to decline them for potentially other alternative opportunities,” Kumar said.
“Then we had about 19 people who accepted offers and ultimately resigned due to other factors, maybe other opportunities.”
