SCHOOL'S OUT CLUB
Looking for a place to take your child on e-learning days or when school is out (due to intercession, institute day, holiday, seasonal break, etc.)? The School's Out Club (SOC) at the Two Rivers YMCA provides children in grades K through 6th with fun, safe, supervised activities from 6:30 am until 5:30 pm. Your child will have time to work on their e-learning as well as have fun with sports, arts, crafts, games, and movies. An afternoon snack and lunch are provided through Nourish, a youth nutrition collaborative.
NEW! In addition to the Two Rivers Y facility in Moline, the School's Out Club program is also available in Rock Island at the Tri-City Jewish Center! Simply choose the location that best suits your family when registering.

As schools reopen with a mix of in-person learning and at-home e-learning, we understand how stressful it can be to figure out balancing working and caring for your child.
For over 30 years, the Two Rivers YMCA has been offering quality childcare programs to grades K-6th throughout the Illinois Quad Cities. We are committed to being there for you and your child, now more than ever, by adapting our childcare programs with convenience, sustainability, and safety in these uncertain times.
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, parents have trusted the well-being of their children to the Y as we provided care to the children of Essential Workers since mid-March and Summer Day Camp since mid-June. The Y has also been a leader in helping Governor Pritzker’s administration develop guidelines for childcare programs in Illinois since late-March.
