OUR PROGRAM:  The Summer Program at GMS is full of fun and creative experiences with just the right balance of positive educational projects, and Montessori lessons.  There is ample time for play, as well as personal growth and exploration through new friendships and ideas.  GMS offers fun and stimulating programs for children ages 2 through 9 years old. Children of all age levels will have the opportunity to participate in arts and crafts, nature, science and special projects.

 
Field trips, nature walks, cooking, gardening and special guests will be integrated into each age group’s program.  In previous years, the YMCA will host swimming lessons for children at least four years of age.
