Summer Power is your answer to safe, quality care and exciting adventures for your child this summer. The YMCA offers a full-day enrichment program with flexible 3-5 day options. Kids enjoy their day in small, age-appropriate groups and participate in activities such as arts and crafts, group games, sports, and field trips – including water parks, zoos, museums, major sporting events, and regional and local parks – under the supervision of our trained and caring YMCA staff. Groups go on field trips three times per week. Each week features a different theme as they explore nature, science, sports, technology, and more. Register for one week or the whole summer!

The safety of each child is our first priority. The YMCA core values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility, and a physically and emotionally secure environment ensure your child’s comfort and well-being.
