About West Suburban YMCA Vacation Programs
Bring your kids to the Y for school holidays and vacation weeks!
Sports Department Vacation Clinics: Our Sports Department offers sports clinics for ages 6-12 during school vacation weeks and some school holidays. Each day, children will play different sports and games in an active, fun, and supportive environment. Activities include soccer, basketball, baseball, floor hockey, flag football, lacrosse, golf, tennis, capture the flag, doctor dodge, battleship, tennis baseball and more!
Children should arrive with a nonperishable peanut-free snack, lunch, and appropriate gym clothing.
Out of School Time Department Vacation Programs: Bring your kids in grades K-8 to the Y for school holidays and vacation weeks! Structured similarly to a day at camp, we offer a mix of activities such as fun games, creative projects and free swim to keep kids active and happy all day. You do not need to be enrolled in our Out of School Time afterschool program to register for vacation programs.
For questions, email paigew@wsymca.org for the Sports Vacation program and seamusb@wsymca.org for the Out of School Time Vacation program.
