One Hour Meetings Once a Month
Share stories, songs, games and crafts with your Circle. Circle meetings are held in a Circle member's home. Circles are teams consisting of up to 10
parents and their children.
Three Campouts a Year
Sleep on bunk beds inside cabins and
eat Y prepared meals at friendly
YMCA campgrounds.
These arrangements allow you to spend more time with your child. Horseback
riding, archery, canoeing, swimming, climbing tower, hiking, fishing, and sledding are
just a few of the things you can do with your child to help them
grow in knowledge and self-esteem.
NOW IS THE TIME
Simply spending time with your child shows them how important they are.
Take the time now before tomorrow becomes yesterday. Be a part of your child's
experiences. Create memories with your child that will last a lifetime for both
of you!
