YMCA NON-SCHOOL DAY PROGRAMS

The Los Cerritos YMCA offers a non-school day program (following the BUSD schedule) at our main facility in Bellflower when school is out! Your family can count on the Y to ensure your child is having fun in a safe, nurturing environment.

Our Day Camps have inspired kids with countless opportunities to laugh, lead, and make lasting friendships.

Our focus is to help your children enjoy a safe and fun program where they can build lasting friendships.
