Whether it's a craft night or learning basics of cooking there's a Y activity to capture the imagination of any kid - and the kid inside any adult. The Y is a great getaway during the school year, allowing you to reconnect with each other and meet other families without the distractions of home life. And summer offers great outdoor adventures, picnics and family field trips.
