And we mean everyone.

34 Programs. Every Age. Every Stage.

This summer, we’re offering 34 programs across nine categories designed to meet you wherever you are in life:

Day Camp — Give your kids a summer they’ll never forget with our Preschool Camp (ages 3–5) and Youth & Teen Camp (ages 5–15). Flexible full and half-day options make it easy to fit camp into any schedule.

Child Care — From infant care to after-school programs, we offer trusted, nurturing child care options including Infant, Toddler & Preschool care, Part-Day Pre-K, Before School Care, and After School Care for Quaker Valley School District families.

Montessori — Our accredited Montessori programs — Toddler, Children’s House, Kindergarten, and Elementary (Grades 1–3) — provide a hands-on, child-led learning environment where curiosity thrives and every child grows at their own pace.

Swim Lessons — Confidence, safety, and lifelong skills for every age. Whether your little one is just getting comfortable in the water or you’re an adult looking to improve your stroke, our certified instructors have a class for you. Programs include Parent & Child, Preschool, Youth, Adaptive, and Adult swim lessons.

Aquatics — Beyond lessons, our aquatics programming includes a Youth Swim Team, Adult Masters Swim Team, ARC Lifeguard Certification, and Adult, Lap, Family & Open Swim options.

Wellness — Achieve your health goals in a welcoming, fully equipped facility. Choose from Group Exercise classes (free to members!), Group Water Aerobics, the Wellness Center, one-on-one Personal Training, and Group Sports including pickleball, basketball, volleyball, and more.

Healthy Aging — Our Thrive Center for Healthy Aging offers evidence-based programs to help older adults stay strong, mobile, and connected. Programs include Water Exercise, Chronic Disease Wellness, and our full Healthy Aging program suite.

Summer Recreation — Looking for something fun and social? Learn Mah Jongg, sharpen your Bridge game, or join us for the Mah Jongg Summerfest — a community afternoon of games, door prizes, and good company.

Senior Central — We’re here for our senior neighbors beyond the walls of the Y. Faith in Action, Senior Central resource navigation, Safe at Home assessments, and Senior Social Lunches all help older adults stay safe, independent, and connected in our community.


Financial Assistance Is Available

We believe everyone deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive. Donor-funded scholarships are available for qualifying individuals and families who need assistance with memberships, programs, child care, camp, and swim lesson fees. No one should miss out on a great summer because of cost.
