VACATION CAMP - SCHOOL DAYS OFF
Vacation Camp - School Days Off
During the school year, when schools close for parent/teacher conference days, single-day holidays and longer holiday breaks, the YMCA offers full-day child care at select branches so that kids have a place to play and learn.
Notes: Pre-registration may be necessary. Dates may vary by school district, so parents should check their school district calendars.
