The YMCA is offering up a free week of summer camp for the first 150 kids whose parents are unemployed or serving in the military.

The children would be treated to a free week at Camp Nissokone in Oscoda.

It's a $500 value, per child, being offered at no cost to qualified families on a first come, first-served basis.

Parents and guardians are encouraged to follow the guidelines and register on the YMCA Web site at www.ymcadetroit.org

Children must be 9 to 16-years-old. Camping sessions begin the week of June 28 and go through August 15.

You can also get more information by calling 313-267-5300.
