Youth Activities Sports

  

YMCA Slash n Jam

We recently took a group of youth to the YMCA for Slash n Jam. It was a hit - the youth loved it!  When we got there we all signed in, then the staff went over the rules and explained all the activities.  The youth got to play dodge ball (which they love), open gym basketball, swim, enjoy the hot tub, play kick ball, & arts and crafts. It was a great time for all.  We plan on attending Slash n Jam every month.  The next session will be June 19, 2010 from 6pm to 9 pm. Make sure to sign up and reserve a spot.  Spots are limited to a first come first serve basis.  Thank you.  

If you have any questions regarding this please feel free to contact myself Magdalena Turrieta at (360)509-9512 or (360)394-8634.
