McArthur Family YMCA

You Can Take Control

Did you know that 1 in 3 adult Americans is at high risk for diabetes? Our Diabetes Prevention Program is a 24-session class to help participants learn about healthier eating, physical activity and other behavior changes to prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes. A new class is launching at the Brooks Family YMCA on Saturday, June 23. For more information or to see if you qualify, visit Member Services or contact Lisa Peabody.

Open Water Challenge

We're encouraging the community to participate in the upcoming 2012 Ed Gaw Amelia Island Open Water Challenge on Saturday, May 26. In addition to a great swim at Fernandina Beach, either 5K or 1 mile, 40% of the proceeds will go towards our Annual Giving Community Campaign to help children, adults and families right here on the First Coast. You can download and print out a registration form in the download center to the right or register online at active.com.

Summer Day Camp

We know kids work hard during the school year and look forward to the arrival of summer. So, when the last bell rings, head to the Y for Summer Day Camp, where kids of all ages will develop new skills, discover a new adventure and make new friends along the way. Register online, or for more information on camp and special offers, stop by Member Services.

TRX Group Exercise

Another way to get your suspension training is at our TRX group exercise class. This free, 20-minute class is included in your membership as a part of our group exercise class schedule. Classes are Wednesdays at 7:00am with Kevin in Studio A and Fridays at 10:15am with Dustin in the gym. We also offer a teens-only class on Wednesdays at 3:30pm with Ryan. For more information about TRX or our other group exercise classes, search our online schedule or visit Member Services.

PrYme Time

PrYme Time provides a safe place for children before and after school. Kids receive help on their homework and take part in educational activities that reinforce what is learned at school. They also learn how to interact with other children and adults, while making new friends. With school back in session, visit Member Services to sign up and learn more today.

New Group Ex Classes

Stay healthy, confident and connected at theY through one of our group exercise classes. We've recently added even more classes, so be sure to check out our schedule online or stop Member Services to learn more.
