A great activity for kids and their parents is the EA Smith Family YMCA program called Adventure Guides & Princesses. This program is designed to assist the parent and child on a journey of discovery. If you enjoy camping and spending time with your children, you will enjoy this program. At the campouts there is usually an event for the kids such as a sandcastle competition, nature scavenger hunt, movie night, chili cook-off, paper rocket making/launching, water balloon events, river tubing, hiking, biking, and many other fun activities. This program is for school-aged children K through 8th grade.
