These are priceless benefits to me as a mother, to see my children improve on their skills as well as improving their overall health. As my son got in better shape he improved his overall performance in football and this has helped him to feel better about himself. It has also led him to focus at school because he feels better about himself and wants to keep moving forward with football. The same is true for my daughter she is happier as she gets in better shape and becomes better in volleyball. As a mother of two teenagers I am so grateful for Project Athletes.

Update: The Stephens Family YMCA has decided to cancel all summer camps this season. They will offer Essential Childcare to essential working families in the community for 60 children each week starting June 8 through July 31.
The YMCA has decided that in order to make this registration process fair to all, admission will be selected by lottery format. All families who are currently registered for summer camps at the YMCA will be picked randomly to attend this Essential Childcare program this summer. There will be two selection dates, one for June and one for July. Once the list is randomized, staff will call each individual family to ask which weeks they would like care for each month. Parents will be able to request up to 2 weeks of childcare each month. July’s camp selecting process will begin in mid-June.
Nationwide no one cares for more children than the YMCA. This year summer fun is better than ever with over 70 camps to appeal to children of every age and interest. Y camps add variety and help children stretch their imagination, gain self–confidence and learn new skills.
Dates: Camp season runs from May 26 through Aug. 14. Full day camps are from 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. Half-day specialty camps also run in the mornings and afternoons.
Parent Comment: We just want to send our sincere gratitude for you and your staff at the Y Summer Camp. Our son LOVES going to camp. Over the summer, we have seen tremendous growth in his social skills, communication, and independence -- we attribute much of this growth to the Y counselors. Perhaps most of all, we appreciate each of the counselor's genuine enthusiasm and support for our son. Especially as parents of a child with support needs, it is so reassuring and heartwarming to see our son around counselors who genuinely enjoy him and have high expectations for him. Further, we see peers in the camp demonstrate similar feelings toward him. We have no doubt that the other campers are simply modeling the behavior of the counselors.
