Keeping kids active during school breaks

YMCA School Break Programs — on PD Days, March Break, Winter Break, and Summer Break — ignite creativity, connection, and fun for children in YMCA School Age and Child Care programs. Kids stay active with sports, arts and crafts, indoor and outdoor games, and hands-on activities.
