Sports & Recreation

Sports and Recreation

We believe sports, fun and exploring new interests aren’t just for the young. Along with improving health, whenever teamwork is involved, there’s the added benefit of being connected to others. That’s why you’ll find a range of recreational activities at the Y. With something to offer everyone, there’s no such thing as being too old to get in the game.

At the Y, sports and recreational activities are something special. Friendly competition (even with yourself), lots of variety and a supportive environment means team sports and recreation is fun again, and it makes for a healthier lifestyle and a good story or two.

Recreation

So many activities serve to restore our spirits and energy, get us outdoors or test our limits. And for many of us, they’re the foundation of active living and rewarding relationships. Cycling, hiking, running, wall climbing, racquetball, swimming and many more recreational activities are available at your Y. Instruction, lessons and group trips are likely part of the mix, so it may be time for you to try something new.

Adult Swim Lessons

Swimming is a life skill that everyone should acquire regardless of your age. Accidents happen everyday and adults should know how to act in a safe manner when in the water. Personal safety isn't the only concern, though. If you are a parent or guardian, young people might depend on you for their own safety. There are other benefits to learning how to swim, not just safety. Swimming is a great exercise and can keep you active no matter the season. So get started today and start enjoying the water!
