Young Minds Create Art
Children are active learners, and making art is a hands-on activity that expands imaginations and exercises creativity. It also develops small motor control and eye-hand coordination, and sharpens children’s powers of observation. Preschoolers ages 4-5 years will have fun creating crafts and art projects in this class designed just for them!
Teen Leaders Club
The Teen Leaders Club is a National YMCA club designed to encourage volunteering and community service based opportunities for teens. It is open to anyone ages 12-18 years of age.
This unique club allows teens to suggest and participate in volunteer projects in their community. It?s a fun way for teens to log community hours for a school project or for college applications as well as make new friends! All volunteer hours are recorded. All volunteer opportunities are optional. Teens pick which projects they would like to work on.
