• BWS & YMF Summer Experience

    Join us at the BWS & YMF Summer Experience! This exciting opportunity is for students who have completed 1st through 11th grades (classes will be split into age appropriate groups) to reduce "summer slide" through literacy & character development, financial education, team building, life skills, and have a lot of fun along the way. Summer camp meets from June 8th to July 16th, Monday through Thursday from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM at 1356 Jefferson Ave SE, Grand Rapids, MI 49507. A registration fee of $150 per child applies (limited scholarships available). We invite parents to fill out the registration form completely, and if any section does not apply, simply write “N/A.” For questions or additional information, please contact our Program Director at chamille@betterwsinc.com.
