Making new memories: Frost Valley YMCA
At Frost Valley YMCA, families can enjoy fun and life-changing activities in the heart of the Catskill Mountains making new memories on 5,500 picturesque acres. The wide range of activities includes gliding out onto Lake Cole in a rowboat or canoe; zip-lining; trying your hand at archery; horseback riding; rock-climbing walls with challenges for all levels; and taking on hiking trails to High Falls (a great spot for photos!) or to the cable bridge. Or, if you prefer indoor activities, you can explore your creative side in arts and crafts; learn a new skill or hone one you already practice with classes in pottery, woodworking, and candle making; or unwind with a stretch-and-relaxation class. Whatever the activities, Frost Valley is devoted to providing safe family fun with activities, excitement, and enrichment for all abilities. While it’s a great way for a family to become closer or a group to bond, couples also get in on the good times at Frost Valley, making memories to last a lifetime.

Staying on the cutting edge
At Immaculate Heart Academy, a major key to our students’ success is remaining on the cutting edge of educational programming and college prep curriculum. Our dedicated and knowledgeable College Counseling Department, a collaborative effort that boasts members with 30+ years of combined experience, provides faculty, students, parents, and teachers with a more focused, individualized plan for the college application and admissions processes. Educating students and parents about these processes starting in freshman year helps ensure each student makes the right decision for her, including attending the college that allows her to reach and exceed her goals. The graduating Class of 2023 earned more than $40 million in scholarship awards and 95% were admitted to their first- or second-choice colleges. We are proud that our College Counseling Department continually proves to be beyond successful and worthwhile for everyone involved.
