Attention CLC YMCA Friends

December 3rd

Villages of Lights!

Our Y kids of all ages are enjoying the holiday season and ensuring that the atmosphere is festive. Pictured here are our Y teen leaders decorating our Village of Lights tree with one of the Thrive at the Y students.

Kids in the Kitchen!

One of our Kids in the Kitchen chefs focusing on cutting parsnips from Veggies to Table foodbank farm for a roasted veggie dish. Knife skills are one of the focuses in our afterschool cooking program.

A new session of Kids in the Kitchen will start in January! Gift certificates to the Y are a great way to gift a fun program that builds lifelong skills!

Tennis & Pickleball!

Youth Tennis: We are excited to be running 3 USTA tournaments for kids 10 and under! It will be round robin play with two levels, orange ball and green ball. This is a great opportunity for any kids who love competing to get some playing time. It's also a big step for the youth tennis program to have been asked by the USTA to run this event! The first event is Saturday, December 18th from 1:30-5:30. Registration is required.
Pickleball: Learn the fastest growing game in America - PICKLEBALL! The next Learn to Play session will start in January. The day session will be Tuesday, January 3rd at 10:00am, and the evening session will start Wednesday, January 4th at 5:00pm.
