Dive into a world of possibilities with the Y’s Adaptive Water Fitness program, where every splash counts and every stroke is a step towards confidence, independence, and a healthier lifestyle. This new water fitness program is designed for individuals of all abilities, ages 13 and up, who may benefit from an alternative form of movement.
Join the YMCA for a morning of joy, support, and celebration as we create a welcoming space for swimmers of all abilities. Designed to be inclusive and accommodating for kids with diverse sensory needs and their families, YMCA Sensory-Friendly Swims will feature a quiet environment with no music and little-to-no whistle use by our lifeguards. The water features in the Family Pool will also be turned off during this time.
Lace up your running shoes, invite your family and friends, and plan to attend the C.W. Avery Family YMCA’s Second Annual Back to School Color Run/Walk.
