WILKES-BARRE &mdash; Jennifer Brennan, director of education and child care services at the Wilkes-Barre Family YMCA, on Tuesday said the facility is looking forward to seeing all of the children and families it serves return to the center.
				Beginning Monday, June 1, the YMCA will reopen child care for essential services personnel. Examples of essential services personnel includes health care employees, emergency workers (fire, police, emergency medical services, etc.), grocery store staff and more.
				&ldquo;We are implementing new procedures for pick-up and drop-off, wellness checks and staff PPE,&rdquo; Brennan said. &ldquo;Since March 30, we have done our best to stay relevant to our families and act as a support in providing educational and interactive activities they could do at home on a nightly basis. I think we all just want to get back to normal, no matter how slowly and carefully we need to do so.&rdquo;
				With Luzerne County entering the yellow phase of Gov. Tom Wolf&rsquo;s reopening plan on Friday, May 29, the YMCA&rsquo;s Summer Scholars Program will open on June 8 for anyone who needs it
				Beginning June 15, the Summer OFF Program will open and the Summer Day Camp at YMCA Camp Kresge will open on June 15.
				Upon reopening these programs, the Wilkes-Barre Family YMCA will refer to the guidelines recommended by the Centers for Disease Control for guidance.
