💙 Thank you to our YMCA Charity 5K sponsors!

This year’s YMCA Charity 5K was made possible with the generous support of our sponsors.

Thank you for helping us create an incredible event and raise funds to give more children and youth the opportunity to experience YMCA camps filled with adventure, friendship, learning, and fun.

Together, we're helping more kids shine on.

There's still time to make an impact. Fundraising remains open until October 31: raceroster.com/events/2026/112029/ymca-charity-5k

What happens when an educator gets curious about what children are curious about? 👻🍂🕸️

YMCA educator Tatiana noticed the children’s interest in fall. By digging deeper, she discovered what really captured their attention: all things spooky!

That observation became the spark for playful experiences with letters, light, shapes, stories, and dramatic play.

That’s curiosity at work in child care.

Could your curiosity help children learn and grow?

Spooky season, cardboard edition. 👻

A haunted house is a fun way to bring hands-on, screen-free play into October. In a YMCA Before & After School Program, children used simple materials to build, decorate and add spooky little details while practising creativity, planning, fine motor skills and problem-solving.

Try it at home with one box, glue and a few cotton-ball cobwebs. Friendly ghosts welcome.

Sometimes the most important thing an educator can do is… wait. 👀

Child care educators observe closely, notice children’s cues, and give them time to think, try, and communicate.

It’s patience with purpose, and it can make a meaningful difference in how children learn and grow.
