If you require childcare due to the shortened school days in Clinton, the Clinton YMCA will be offering Y-Zone.

Clinton YMCA Executive Director Rennie Cluver indicates Y-Zone is available for students kindergarten through fifth grade. Y-Zone runs from 6:30am until the start of school and then from 1:30pm until 6pm.

Cluver says to make sure they have enough staff for the number of students attending, parents will need to preregister. In cases of emergency, parents can contact the YMCA and they will notify the staff.

David Torbert, Clinton YMCA Program Director, reminds Y-Zone is an afterschool program so staff will assist students with help for homework or projects they may have in addition to games and activities.

Cluver notes with an increase in the number of hours of childcare for afterschool, the price has been adjusted. Parents can send their students from 1:30pm-3:30pm or from 1:30pm-6pm.
