How interactive and engaging they are
My daughter was engaged all day and loved swimming.
Old school kid games (not technology - makes them use their creativity) and also the physically play games (outside play or in the gym).
And they get to try new foods/snacks that I don’t normally have at home.
We love the Y after school care at Sand Creek Elementary. The staff are very intentional with the kids, providing many opportunities to participate in a variety of activities and learn valuable life skills.
Everything!
Variety of activities, very organized, good communication with parents. Flexible drop-off/pick-up times.
Friends my son makes while there
Son seemed to enjoy whatever he decided to do that day or have offered. Mix of activities. Outside time.
I like the flexibility and social aspect of the program. My school has really great site directors.
Keeps the kids interacting.
The camp is well ran. The staff has been great. My granddaughter loves it! I appreciate you.
One suggestion, I stopped by the site early this morning (7:45am). There were no children present yet.
There were 2 adult males present. Shouldn't there be 1 male and 1 female on duty? If a little girl was dropped off early with no other children, she would be left with 2 adult males. This may not be the best approach. Just a thought, not a criticism.
The variety of activities that are provided kept my son engaged. Never a dull moment
The type the activities the kid loves it
I love how this location has kept my child active and having fun! Their daily routine so far has included numerous sports and inventions. My child is in such a good mood when I pick her up and just raves about her new friends and the daily activities. Not being on electronics all day is a game changer! The staff has been amazing and we are both so thankful for this wonderful summer opportunity! 🙏 Thank you YMCA New Pal!

The flexibility of the daily drop off and pick up times, the variety of activities offered, the affordability, and the friendliness of staff
You have programs for all the family to have fun and to stay healthy.
The summer camp all around is great with the kids and they go above and beyond to make sure the kids enjoy their summer breaks. From the daily activities to the different days they have at summer camp for the kids I would definitely recommend the summer camp to any parent.
Flexibility
Keeping the kids active all day is great for them gives them a safe place to get out all their energy during the weekdays in the summer when most parents have work.
Love the summer camp for kids.
Need to see a star master at the Avondale ymca. There is none.
