Youth Programs

Building confidence, character, and healthy habits in a safe, supportive, and welcoming environment.

Growing Stronger Together

At the Staunton-Augusta Family YMCA, youth development is at the heart of everything we do. From learning to swim to discovering leadership skills, our programs help children grow in spirit, mind, and body. We create safe spaces where kids feel encouraged, supported, and inspired to reach their full potential — while having fun along the way.
