Schools out days with the YMCA
School's Out Days
School is out, come on in!

The Eugene Family YMCA offers care on select days when school is closed throughout the year. It's great way for youth grades K-5th to socialize, play, participate in crafts and STEM activities, get in some physical activity, and more! We offer a variety of enrichments that change each day. We base our School's Out Days availability on school closures across the 4J/Bethel/South Lane districts, the space(s) available, and the length of the school closure. Locations may include schools throughout the 4J district or the Eugene Family YMCA itself, and registration is open to all! Registration is made available twice yearly in the Fall and Winter seasons. Click here to see what's available now!

Your Y also offers Summer Camps. Interested in learning more? Click here!
