Youth Happenings at the West Suburban YMCA

December 2020 Winter Vacation Programs – December 28th – December 31st
Give your kids something to look forward to – no screens attached! Sign up for one of the Y’s school vacation programs for an active week of socially distanced games, sports, crafts, swim, and more! Learn more and download a registration form at www.wsymca.org/childcare/school-vacation-programs.

Winter Programs: January 4th – February 14th Registration is open!
2020 was a challenging year that required families to break from their typical routines and adapt to new ways of doing things. Since July of 2020, the Y has been adapting as well. The Y remains committed to helping you and your family stay active, engaged, and above all, safe.  Stay active as a family by signing up for swimming, sports, music, and fitness programs! Register today: https://www.wsymca.org/find-a-program

Create A Class – Put together the roster, and the Y will run the program!
Stay involved in your favorite activities AND keep within your bubble or cohort! The Y has introduced the option to form your own group of participants to create a class. Whether it’s your school cohort, a family bubble, or a neighbor group, the Y will work with you to set up a day and time for your group and the program of your choosing.

Most Y programs can be adapted to Create A Class. Everything from toddler tumbling to teen basketball, youth swim lessons to yoga, and everything in between! Classes can take place indoors, outdoors, or virtually.

West Suburban YMCA programs have been adapted to operate in accordance with all safety protocols and sector-specific guidelines outlined by the CDC, the state of Massachusetts, and local health authorities. If you have questions about a specific program or class, please visit the Y’s website for more information and registration.

Family Swim during December School Vacation Week
Have the pool to yourself with family swim! 30-minute reservation slots are available in the Y’s small pool. Family swim is limited to ONE family/household with a maximum of six family members. Additional family swim times available during winter vacation week! Make a reservation and learn more: https://www.wsymca.org/schedules-events/pool-schedule

YMCA Summer Camp Registration opens January 11th
In 2020, the West Suburban YMCA operated a safe, successful, and fun camp season for hundreds of children at YMCA Camp Pikati and YMCA Camp Chickami. Registration for day camp and overnight camp (YMCA Camp Frank A. Day) opens on January 11th. Day Camp deposit(s) are fully refundable until April 1, 2021, so families can maintain flexibility when making summer plans. Learn more at www.wsymca.org/camps.
