Prescott Resort Gingerbread Village



Have you been to the Prescott Resort lately? Well, gather the family and drive up the hill to see the "World's Largest Gingerbread Village"!

The Prescott YMCA After School groups worked hard creating their addition to the village which is their version of Rapunzel's Castle from the new Disney release, "Tangled". The gingerbread castle was the brain child of one of our youngest children, Ryder. It is fitting that Rapunzel's hair is made from red licorice, as Ryder is a red head himself.

If you've not had a chance, please go and visit Prescott Resort to see Rapunzel's Castle made by YMCA kids as well as all of the other impressive creations!
The Resort's display will continue through January 2, 2011. Click here for further details. Prescott Resort Gingerbread Village.
Happy Holidays!

Child Watch Spotlight



Did you know that you can participate in "free babysitting" at the YMCA 5 days a week, 12 months of the year?

If you are a Prescott YMCA Member and have a child / children that is between the ages of 1-9, you are able to utilize our complimentary Child Watch Services. Our friendly and knowledgeable staff will make sure your child is happy and safe in the Child Watch room, while you are just feet away participating in a fitness class, or just hitting the weights and treadmill for the day.

Child Watch is open from 8:15am - 12:00noon Mondays through Thursdays, and on Fridays from 8:15am - 11:15am. All participating families must have an active family membership at the Prescott YMCA. Parents are required to stay on the YMCA campus at all times that children are in Child Watch, and children may stay a maximum of 2 hours per day.

Stop by, check out Child Watch and sign up for your Family Membership at the YMCA today!

We're for youth development, healthy living and social responsibility.
