Parent of a teen? It can be tricky to find a place for your young teens in the summer time. Check your local YMCA chapter as many are offering free summer YMCA membership for teens. Some are for specific grades, like entering 7th or 8th graders. Here are some example locations:
YMCA Dayton (Ohio) YMCA Delaware YMCA of Honolulu (Hawaii) YMCA High Point (North Carolina) YMCA Northwest North Carolina YMCA Metro Los Angeles YMCA North (Minnesota and Wisconsin)(Hat tip to FreeBFinder)
The YMCA can be a safe space for your teen to socialize as well as have access to gyms, pickleball/basketball courts, heated pools, fitness centers, and in-person and virtual live-stream and on-demand exercise classes.
If this really interests but nothing is shown online, I would still call your local YMCA, as some locations may not list their participation in on their websites. They may also offering discounted teen memberships, along with affordable leadership programs and/or lifeguard training. The YMCA can be a great source of first-time jobs for older teens.
