We're asking that all guests to our health, fitness and aquatic centres complete a 3-question screening process before entering the facility. You can now do this ahead of time online! Just complete the questions on your handheld device and show the green screen to the staff member who greets you.
We are drown-proofing the Okanagan by providing free swimming lessons to every grade 3 student in School District #23.
Thanks to generous donors, we offer Beyond the Bell; an after school program available to some of the Okanagan's most at-risk kids.
We believe kids should have access to healthy food and snacks in our programs.
The YMCA wants to inspire our entire community to get active, and their free 21-Day YFitness Challenge has currently generated 5,589 hours of exercise. Participants just have to register by the end of February and get moving for 20 minutes a day anyway they can for 21 days straight to qualify for great prizes including a paddleboard.
Interior Savings has made it possible for the YMCA of Okanagan to purchase much needed play-based equipment for both their Family Play Time and Child Care programs, through their Community Investment Fund. This will ensure the healthy development of our community’s youngest members at multiple locations throughout the Okanagan.
Made in YLW, in partnership with the You Are Collective, created products to inspire the choice to support local businesses, generating cash flow for Kelowna businesses who have been struggling during the pandemic, and donated a portion of each item to the YMCA of Okanagan.
