★★★★★Althea AycockWe love Horizons after school program thru the YMCA. Fun stuff for kids to do to keep them entertained and out of trouble while we work full time jobs. Thank you.
★★★★★Mara EvansThe YMCA and their afterschool program has been an incredible place for our kids. The prioritization of outdoor time away from technology is perfect. Special shout out to Molly and Jack--these two human beings are kind, collected, and calm--thanks for being great role models to our kids.
★★★★★Jordana AlexisMy son loves the YMCA after-school program, and as a parent, that means everything to me. The staff truly cares about the kids they’re encouraging, attentive, and make every child feel included. He enjoys the activities, gets a chance to burn energy, learn new things, and build friendships. I feel completely confident knowing he’s in a safe, fun, and supportive place. Highly recommend the YMCA afterschool to any parent looking for a great after-school option!
★★★★★Sophia KapriBeing that I'm a single mom and my son is now in grade school, having YMCA after school has been the BEST program I've experienced! I'm able to work holidays I wasn't able to when he was in daycare. My son also loves the program and has made great friends outside of class and loves the staff as well! I love you guys myself! Thank you!!!
★★★★★Jessica TrippMy daughter has attended YMCA summer camp for two years now. Outside play in the woods and creek are my daughters favorite things. Roller skating was a huge hit for her this summer. The hours 7:30a-5:30p is very nice for working parents.
