5K/10K Race & Kids Fun RunSaturday, April 2
The fifth annual Fast Cat is set for Saturday, April 2 at Plainfield North High School! Festivities include a 5K, 10K and the Y-sponsored one-mile Kids Run.
YMCA Team T-shirts will be provided to all that pre-register. Sizes for adults and children are available while supplies last.
This year marks the tenth anniversary of the C.W. Avery Family YMCA! On February 4, 2006, the Y officially opened its doors to the Plainfield community. The rest is history.
Join us as we take a look back and reminisce over an unforgettable decade!
SHOWING OUR APPRECIATION
As a part of our celebration, 1,000 members (ages 18 and up) will take home a free protein shaker if they stop by the Y on February 4! While supplies last.

Are you interested in YMCA swimming lessons? Do you need some guidance in getting started? We can help!
Come out to the Y for a FREE swim test provided by our trained Aquatics staff. Not only will you learn what swim level your child is ready for, but you will also receive tips on what techniques they need to improve.
Participants will be allowed to swim and play in the pool after testing. Parents and family members may join in, too.
J.P. Fox and his family joined the C.W. Avery Family YMCA many years ago thanks to the financial assistance they received from the Y’s scholarship program.
Ever since, J.P. has spent countless hours within the confines of our pool—first for swim lessons, then as a Porpoise Club swimmer, and now as a YMCA lifeguard.
The Y, J.P. says, has become his home away from home. The people inside have become his second family.
