Register Now for YMCA’s Fall Enrichment Program at Stillwater

As we reported last May, each enrichment session (fall, winter and spring) will run 6 weeks (1 day a week) and feature an arts class, a STEM class and a physical education class. Below are the descriptions for the 3 classes offered during the fall session.

EACH SESSION COSTS ONLY $60, that is just $10 per session! Students work on homework from 3:30 – 4:00 pm, they can also eat a snack at this time if they bring one with them and then they go to their enrichment class from 4:00 – 5:00 pm. These classes are held AT Stillwater.

EACH CLASS HAS A MAXIMUM NUMBER OF STUDENTS THEY CAN ALLOW, don’t miss your chance to sign-up!
