Friends and Family time at the Y is about giving families as a unit, and as individuals, the opportunities to deepen relationships, develop new skills and interests, improve their health and well-being, and connect to the community.
We believe strong communities can be achieved when we invest in our kids, our families, and our neighbors. Our YMCA is where cause meets community every day. The Y is where families grow and our focus is to bring families and communities together.
Our branches host family-friendly events including Winter Wonderland, March Madness, Breakfast with the Bunny, Spooky Games, Breakfast with Santa, Lunch with Special Characters, Camp Family Nights, Parents Night Out/Kids Nights at the Y and Drop & Shop events.
