The YMCA Challenger Club program provides safe, affordable, quality recreation for youngsters during the hours when there may be no adult supervision in the home. Children will have the opportunity to engage in activities which will benefit them emotionally, physically and socially.
The program includes crafts, physical fitness, snacks, character development and homework time. The program is conducted and planned by staff trained to meet the needs of children and to provide positive adult role models. It is not baby-sitting, but a quality program designed with the working family in mind.
