School Breaks & Holidays
While school is out many parents still have to work. Finding the right childcare option is essential. The Y is here to provide an engaging day for your child. We offer camp experiences during out-of-school days and school breaks. Your child will enjoy their out-of-school days building friendships through group games, STEM projects and more! A focus on social and emotional learning is infused in all activities as caring and qualified staff strive to build confidence and resilience in all youth. We would love to have your child join us for a “day off” they won’t forget!
Licensed programs accept DES.
