Program Description
The YMCA after school club is for children in Kindergarten through 13 years of age, where they can have fun, be with friends, make new friends, learn, and grow in a safe environment. The After School Club is licensed by the State of Missouri and is in its 17th year at Central School. Our goal is to provide a safe place for children during those hours when a parent cannot be at home with their child after school. Our programs are recreation-based programs that are structured with many varied activities to stimulate the social, emotional, intellectual, and physical growth and development of our children.

This program is a collaboration between the YMCA and the Chillicothe R-II School District and is licensed by the State of Missouri for school-age children. The Director has many years of experience working with children, is licensed by the State of Missouri and has her CDA certification. Our program meets the requirements of the High School A+ Program.

With school out for all students across the Chillicothe school district due to teacher in-service meetings, elementary students were left wondering what to do to keep themselves busy. The answer: the YMCA Fun Day - an event where local elementary students participate in physical exercise, fun crafts, and snack time, among other things, at the Chillicothe YMCA during the day, while their parents are working.
