POWER UP Youth Program

Registration for the POWER UP program takes place every September at the start of the school year. The POWER UP program cannot accommodate those who wish to drop in. Registration is required for this program.

POWER UP is a program for youth ages 12-15, and is based on the 8 Dimensions of Wellness (Emotional, Spiritual, Physical, Social, Financial, Occupational, Intellectual and Environmental) in alignment with the YMCA’s dedication to the growth of all person in spirit, mind and body, and to their sense of responsibility to each other and the global community.

Meetings will be a mix of recreation, learning opportunities, volunteer opportunities and community engagement. Respect, Tolerance and Confidentiality are key to the success of the group.

Regular meetings will be held on Wednesdays from 6-8pm. Bonus sessions will be held on PD Days. Program runs September 27th through January 10^th.

POWER UP is an inclusive program and welcomes youth of all abilities, genders, and physical activity levels.

Active participants will receive a FREE YMCA membership which will remain active until August 31, 2024. Memberships include access to one registered program per session. Additional program fees may apply-please speak with program facilitator if there are financial barriers to accessing a program.

Join us on Wednesday, August 23^rd (6-8pm) for a tour of the YMCA facilities, registration and an introduction to Power Up.
