Purpose

YMCA Extended Day Programs are dedicated to offering a quality and caring experience for children 5-12 years of age. Programs are designed to accommodate family schedules and offer children a chance to grow and develop in a positive environment conducive to developing skills and values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility.

YMCA Philosophy of Extended Programs

YMCA Extended Programs are designed to encourage children to build healthy, happy attitudes and to work toward developing competencies and skills through a variety of work and play experiences. Our goal is to develop the individual child’s positive self-image, creative expression, communication skills, and motion coordination, in an environment that stimulates a desire to learn and have fun.
