Activate
America Program
The Activate America Program is a national YMCA initiative to improve the health
and wellness of all Americans by helping individuals and families live healthier lives and working toward a more activity
friendly environment. Fourteen sites were selected to take part in the first year of this ten year initiative and the
entire state of West Virginia was one of them! The Beckley - Raleigh County is excited to provide Activate America,
dubbed "Y-Move", as part of its Afterschool Program. Y-Move is 30 minutes of functional conditioning in a kid-friendly
circuit training format that utilizes lively cardio-cascular, agility and balance games to get your child active. Y-Move
helps improve body composition, joint integrity, bone density and muscle endurance. Y-Move shows children that exercise
can be fun!
Nutritious Snacks
Even kids need energy after a long day! With that in mind,
the YMCA Afterschool Program provides snacks for your child comprised of fruits, juices and other nutritious items to keep
your child energetic and going.
Play Time
All work
and no play? Not at the YMCA! As
part of the YMCA Afterschool Program, play time is included to let kids be kids. Whether
it’s a visit to the playground or indoors doing arts & crafts, our staff will supervise your child while play time
is in session and maybe even get in on the FUN!
