In-Service Days
The YMCA will provide full day care on pre-scheduled In-Service days based on the school calendar. In-Service times are typically Monday-Friday, at various locations. There is an additional fee for this. Parents should register their child for In-Service days separately from the afterschool program. Please keep in mind that once you register for In-Service days, you will be charged for those days regardless of attendance. Register Here
