Before and After School
Enrichment Program
For youth grades K – 6

The YMCA provides a positive and meaningful experience for your child! The Before and After School Enrichment Program is
activity-based and designed to enhance the social, physical,
emotional and intellectual growth of all children within a safe, caring, fun-filled, and supportive environment. All the programs and
activities are values based, focusing on the YMCA's character virtues of Caring, Honesty, Respect & Responsibility.

The Before & After School Enrichment Program provides structured daily activities for children such as group games, homework
assistance, arts and crafts, snack time, and indoor and outdoor
recreation. Children will also have an opportunity to engage in a variety of extra activities such as swimming, music, talent shows, community service projects, and team building activities throughout the school year.

We use the research based CATCH (Coordinated Approach to Child Health) to help kids develop and maintain good eating and exercise habits.
