Family First at the Y
Serving families has always been at the heart of the Y. We are a place where they can find support. We have a fundamental desire to provide opportunities for every family to build stronger bonds, achieve greater work/life balance, and become more engaged with their communities.
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.
Family First Fridays
Every 1st Friday of the month from 6:30-8:00pm, we invite your family to join us for an evening of themed crafts, activities, snacks, and fun. Spaces are limited-early registration encouraged. Family First Fridays will not take place in July or August, and will return in September.
