All are Welcome to Celebrate Healthy Kids Day^® at the Regional YMCA of Western Connecticut

Sunday, April 27th, 2025
12:00 PM – 3:00 PM

Free and open to the public, this annual event features a day of fun-filled activities to celebrate kids being kids.

This free, annual event features a variety of family-friendly activities to encourage healthy kids, healthy families and a healthy start to the summer season.

In celebration of this annual kick-off to summer, we are sharing a list of five activities that we encourage you to share with your kids. The goal is to have them try something new at the Y by promoting a variety of opportunities to get involved in active play – hopefully, this will inspire a lifetime love of physical and mental activity! Share these opportunities with your children and inspire them to “find their fun” by discovering an activity that they love!

Find Your Swimming Skills with Y Swim Lessons                                                                                  

Each year the Y teaches nearly 2,000 swim sessions to children in our community. This helps them find their CONFIDENCE, teaches a lifelong skill and introduces them to lifelong fun. Visit  our  aquatics pages to learn more about Y swim lessons.

Find Your Adventure with Y Summer Camp                                                                                    

Summer is a time for kids to explore new things and expand the limits of their imagination. At YMCA Camp Greenknoll or the YMCA Summer Club at Grassy Plain, every day is a new adventure! Having a blast with new friends at summer day camp, many children and teens find their ADVENTURE with the Y. Visit our camp pages to learn more about Y summer camp.

Find your Passion with Y Sports                                                                                                        

Youth sports are just the start of something bigger– besides teaching healthy living principles, they also teach the value of teamwork, help fuel determination and build character. At the Regional YMCA we have sports programs to help keep children active while igniting their PASSION for something greater. Visit our sports page to learn more about Y sports programs.

Find Your Voice with Y Teen Programs                                                                                              

We believe young people have the power to change the world. Our teen and young adult programs are designed to help young people develop the skills and confidence they need to lead positive change in the Greater Danbury Area and beyond.
