Swim, Sports, and Play
Swimming
Swimming is a life skill as well as great exercise and a challenging sport. Ys offer swim lessons (for all ages), family swim, competitive swimming and diving teams, and many kinds of adaptive swim programs for kids with special needs, so we can all safely enjoy the pleasures of an aquatic environment.
Splash Pad Summer
Our Boroughs and Greendale Family Branches had Splash Pads installed during our recent renovations. These outdoor areas are open to our members with families during the Summer Season. Your children will LOVE splashing around and having buckets of water pour down on them from our fun splash pad fountains! The Boroughs Family Branch also features an outdoor pool. Contact the Welcome Center for full details, or learn more in the Summer Program Guides.
Recreation
Teen centers, group exercise, triathlon training, dance clubs, skateboarding, arts—there’s a lot more than sports at the Y, giving kids the chance to exert energy, try new things, make new friends … and be kids! We also offer birthday parties and rental space for gatherings and events! Sit back, relax, and let the Y take care of all the details for you. We offer a selection of different theme parties to choose from as well as different areas and space to rent for your meeting or event. Contact your local branch for full details.
