The first event will feature heavy fighting, archery demonstrations and more. There is a $5 spectator fee that will go towards the Y’s Strong Communities Campaign, which supports its Scholarship Assistance Program, according to Houseman.

The next event, scheduled in the kitchen of the YMCS, will be an interactive family pie making activity, which will cost $5 for a member family of four or $15 for a non-member family.

Action will begin on March 26 and continue through April 16 with a Ball Hockey Skills Camp, led by a local Batavia Ramparts coach.
