7th and 8th Graders

FREE 7th and 8th Grade Summer Memberships to the Y!

Are you a student in the Dayton Region entering the 7th and 8th grade in the Fall of 2025?  If so, the YMCA of Greater Dayton has a gift for you:

A free Summer Youth Membership to the YMCA of Greater Dayton from June 1st–August 30th, 2025!

The YMCA believes that teens in this age range can sometimes face a challenge of not having enough fun activities to do over the summer months; so, we are ready to be that fun and safe place that teens can go to over the summer to meet up, play sports, hang out and participate in some fun activities designed just for them.  That means more sports, more swimming, and more FUN this summer!

7th & 8th graders will have the opportunity to participate in scheduled programs and activities with other Dayton area teens. Programs and activities include games, crafts, sports, service projects, character skill building, mentoring, teamwork and much more!

Times vary by branch

Join for FREE at your local YMCA branch starting June 1st, 2025. With your parent or guardian, simply bring in some type of verification from your school stating you are entering 7^th or 8^th Grade (anything will work, we want this to be EASY).  Upon filling out the membership application at the Y, we will give you your new YMCA membership card. Your new membership is good from June 1st – August 30th, 2025!
