Programming Link to this section

Our YMCA Before and After School programs foster each child’s cognitive, social-emotional and physical development through opportunities and experiences which focus on achievement, relationships and belonging. There is space for every family that needs it. In our after-care programs, which are divided by age group, we offer enrichment activities such as cooking, business, and art that rotate every six weeks. Our regular programming includes outdoor playtime at Eureka Valley Rec, crafting, homework help, STEAM activities, water play on warm weather days and more! Our before-care programming offers much of the above in addition to Spanish 3 days/week.

Families can choose from 2, 3, or 5 days a week.
