Fox Hills returns!
Without the support of these partners, programs like this wouldn't be possible!
School's Out Camp this month is on Nov 26th. Our theme is Grateful Gatherings - We'll explore the things that make us feel thankful and the reasons behind our gratitude.
School's Out Camp - Nov 26th With the weather getting colder, please have your child dress accordingly. Remember to sign your child out every day on the tablet. Native American Dancers will be at the YMCA on Nov 12th. Thank you to all that donated to our Fall Festival Clothing Drive, We appreciate it!
THANK YOU!
QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS?
Did you know that, every week, our YMCA programs engage in activities designed to reinforce learning and lessons that take place during the school day? Playing with Legos is exciting, but it also builds cognitive development as kids try to build the tallest structure they can. Art projects are fun, but we're also learning all about primary colors, and how to mix and match different hues to find something new! Group games are energetic, but we're also teaching kids to be team players and cheer for others even when it's tough. Our staff spend hours each week preparing activities that your kids will not only enjoy, but that will also challenge them to reach their fullest potential! Ask you child(ren) what their favorite activities are at the Y and let our staff know so that they can plan more! When learning is fun, minds are engaged!
WE'RE SO thankful that YOU'RE HERE!

Happy Birthday!
November is designated as Native American Heritage Month, and to demonstrate our support, we have invited Native American dancers to join us on November 12th during the afterschool program! Parents are encouraged to come and watch. The performance will begin at 4 PM! We will also serve fry bread as a snack for all the kids to enjoy.

As we move into November, I want to take a moment to express my gratitude for our incredible staff & families who make our programs so special. Fall has been a busy season of growth, learning, & connection across our Early Childhood, Afterschool, & Teen programs. Our Afterschool teams have established strong routines, our preschool classrooms are completing assessments & holding parent-teacher conferences, & our Teen program participants are already finding creative ways to give back to their communities. A heartfelt thank you to all the families who participated in our Fall Festival & our Savers Donation Fundraiser, your support is so greatly appreciated. As we enter this season of giving thanks, I want to recognize the continued dedication of our staff and families; the impact we make each day truly strengthens our community & reflects the mission and heart of the YMCA. Rhonda Clark, Regional Director Parent Resource: Start a Family Gratitude Jar! Each evening, have family members write one thing they’re thankful for and add it to the jar. Read them together at the end of the month or on Thanksgiving to celebrate kindness and connection.
