Summer Power is a super-lively, full-day enrichment program focused on quality, small group, age-appropriate activities. Kids stay motivated, entertained and are encouraged to make choices and exercise independent thinking.

Each week is packed with an amazing variety of activities including multiple field trips to exciting places plus inviting special interest clubs and unique programs like water games and cooking projects. Kids will learn new things while they make new friends.

No two weeks are alike! Wonderful outdoor and indoor spaces at the Y give kids a wide variety of options. They'll enjoy pools, splash decks, gyms, playgrounds and more.

Our children look forward to the Y summer program every week.  They meet new friends, go on fantastic field trips, and participate in group activities where they are learning, even when they don't know it.  The best part is, I don't have to worry about my kids while I'm at work -  I know my kids are safe having positive interactions with peers, and not at home watching television.
