Pool Party

There's no party like a YMCA party. Kids have a blast whether it's splashing, jumping or playing. And parents enjoy a stress-free party that is coordinated by a Y Party Host who will lead activities and assist with setup, serving and clean up. Keep it simple or go to the extreme—you can personalize your own private party room as much or as little as you like!

For more information including rates and availability, please contact Youth & Family Coordinator, Ashley Crawford, at acrawford@ymcavbr.org
