Think the fun ends after Broken Arrow? It doesn't have to.
Timucuan Federation
Welcome to Trailblazers, continuing the parent and child relationship in the Timucuan Federation of the First Coast YMCA.
Since these children are older, the child makes more decisions and has more responsibilities, appropriate to their development at this point in life.
With new responsibility comes more fun: choosing events, outings, and activities they couldn't or wouldn't do while in Adventures Guides and Princesses. Once a guide or princess breaks arrow or the child is 9 years old, she/he can join Trailblazers, even if they are new to the program.
Help as we develop this program into something kids will enjoy, learn from and look forward to.
The fun doesn't have to end with Broken Arrow!
