Something Wild is Happening at the Berkeley Heights YMCA

NOVEMBER 2018

This November, students were encouraged to ruffle their creative feathers in the art class offered at the Berkeley Heights YMCA. For the past two weeks, Mrs. B arrived to teach the class with a special visitor; she brought a turkey for her students to observe!

The budding artists were encouraged to examine the feathers, feet, and face of the turkey while learning how to draw their feathered friend. The members of the YMCA are thankful for the creative and exciting classes that are offered. If you have a budding artist in your home, please contact the Berkeley Heights YMCA. The next art class begins in January! Early registration is suggested.

BERKELEY HEIGHTS YMCA | SUMMIT YMCA | THE LEARNING CIRCLE YMCA

In 1886, we were founded as the Young Men’s Christian Association, but today, we are The Y; an association that values, and is made stronger by, its diverse people. We stand for youth development, healthy living and social responsibility — For a better us. We are committed to creating equal opportunity for all regardless of gender, age, disability, income, ethnicity, sexual orientation or religious affiliation. We strive to create a welcoming and inclusive culture in which our four core values — responsibility, honesty, caring and respect — are integral to everyday operations.

Each year, as one of the area’s leading 501(c)3 charitable organizations, the Summit Area YMCA serves more than 15,000 individuals with our free and fee-based programs and services in an area spanning the New Jersey communities of Berkeley Heights, Gillette, Millburn, New Providence, Short Hills, Springfield, Stirling and Summit. Our history is rooted in working side-by-side with our neighbors to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive. Through the generosity of our members, donors, and partners, we are able to offer financial assistance for our programs and services to those in need.

Please note that the Hurst Pool at the Summit YMCA will be closed on Sunday, March 31, 2024 and will reopen on Monday, April 8, 2024 due to regularly scheduled maintenance. Group Ex Pro will reflect amended aquatics schedules.
