Military
Date Night
First Saturday of each Month, 5:30 to 9:30 pm
Take a
break from the kids and enjoy yourselves, with the help of
the Kitsap Armed Services YMCA Military Date Night Program.
Bring the little ones in - as young as 4 weeks will be
accepted - for only $3 per hour per child, for up to four
hours on the first Saturday evening of each month. See a
movie, have dinner or just kick back and relax in the peace
and quiet. (Prepaid punch cards are available for only $25
for ten hours.)
For all the Armed Services YMCAs
in the USA, November was "Military Family Month"
and, to show our appreciation, the Kitsap Armed
Services YMCA gave all our attendees of Date Night
in November a FREE night out!
November
Free Date Night was a big success - we reached
capacity for the facility and staff at 89 children
on the night of November 3. Everyone had a great
night out and the kids had fun all evening long .

other things done during that time.

reserve the right to be flexible with the schedule
as we begin this new program, but currently our
curriculum is as follows:

We are keeping this curriculum
flexible since this is a brand-new Program and we
need to be able to "tweak" anything to improve the
service we are offering to you.
