7th Grade Initiative
The YMCA of Reading & Berks County is empowering youth to reach their potential by offering 7th grade students free membership to support and encourage youth to live healthy lifestyles and make responsible choices. Their membership includes use of the fitness center, pool, gymnasiums, racquetball courts, teen sports, and exercise classes during designated times. A wide range of weekly sports and activities for 7th graders are available after school throughout the YMCA. Examples of activities include homework help, teen boot camp, arts & crafts, hip hop aerobics, volleyball, fitness orientation, etc.
Why 7th Graders? Research shows that seventh grade is a critical time in a young person's life when exposure to risk factors greatly increases. Risk factors are conditions or influences that have been shown to increase the likelihood for unhealthy behaviors including substance abuse, delinquency, teen pregnancy, school drop-out and violence. It is also during the early years that youth begin to distance themselves from family and positive support systems.
Summer Adventure Camp
YMCA Summer Adventure Camps are full-day summer camp programs for school age children.
Summer day camp is designed to provide a fun summer full of swimming, arts & crafts, weekly field trips, sports and special activities.
