The
YMCA has been accepting
registrations for the upcoming YMCA Girls Basketball program. This
program is designed to improve upon the girls' existing basketball
skills while also learning about teamwork, sportsmanship, and of
course, having fun. This league is open to all girls 1st – 6th
grade. Registration will continue until December 23rd. The cost of
this program is $40 for new participants and $35 for those returning
from last year. After December 23rd fees will increase by $10, so
please sign up your daughter today! If you have any questions,
