Y ON THE FLY

Y on the Fly is a mobile YMCA unit that offers free programs aimed to help youth of all ages stay active and engaged in mind, body, and spirit that provides healthy meals to children and families, educational enrichment, physical activities, games, and more. This summer Y on the Fly will be hosting mobile events at local elementary schools throughout Chippewa Falls. Those 18 and younger are welcome to join us for 1 hour of free coordinated games and activities.

WHAT TO EXPECT

The Y is committed to STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Mathematics) focused learning as well as emphasizing social-emotional learning for holistic youth development. Activities brought on site will not only be educationally enriching but are committed to fostering community engagement between kids, teens, and families of all ages.

Following HEPA (Healthy Eating and Physical Activity) standards, it is recommended that children have 60 minutes of play each day. Our expert staff will lead fun group games and movement challenges so every kid is actively having fun.
