YMCA Virtual Education Support Program
At the YMCA, we are giving families another option for their child’s academic education during the 2020-2021 school year. In this program, students will arrive to our facility ready to begin their virtual learning with trained child care staff to assist in school assignments. This option would be ideal for parents who still need child care, but are not comfortable having their child physically return to school with a face mask requirement. Although children will not be required to wear face masks or goggles; frequent hand-washing, sanitizing, and social distancing will be encouraged.

Marco YMCA Holiday Camps
Holiday Camps at the Y share one thing: they’re about discovery. Children have the opportunity to explore nature, find new talents, try new activities, gain independence, and make lasting friendships and memories. And, of course, it’s fun too.
Our program provides positive out of school time experiences for your child on school holidays and breaks. Our staff is committed to ensuring these days are packed with fun and enriching experiences. Our professionally lead team of Youth Development staff plan and organize each minute of the day to ensure your child not only has fun but also has the opportunity to gain new experiences and make new friends.
