Southington Community YMCA Families

The Southington Community YMCA provides a place where a family can come and find something for everyone. Our goal is to offer opportunities for families to spend quality time together through a variety of fun activities that encourage parent child interaction and healthy YMCA values. The YMCA offers family events, family swim, flippin' families at our Gymnastics Center, open gym for families and use of our new Virtual Gym. The YMCA is a great place for your family.
