WARDLE FAMILY YMCA
Afterschool Programming
Our Afterschool programs foster cognitive, social, emotional and physical development in a safe space for all. We encourage children to develop at their own unique rate. We offer affordable rates for working families and financial assistance is available. Daily drop-ins are welcome too. The Y is committed to providing opportunities to strengthen the family unit as we learn, grow and thrive together.
The YMCA Afterschool Program builds brighter, stronger futures for kids by providing a fun, safe environment after school ends. We provide homework help, physical fitness, math and literacy activities, ARTS, STEM and a healthy snack!
