Summer at the Y – Outdoor pools, splash pads, and more!
Spend time with family at our staycation destination with access to 5 outdoor pools, splash pads, and more! Enroll in Family Membership this summer and enjoy unlimited access to our outdoor pools, splash park, special summer events and so much more!
Outdoor pool access is a benefit of full privilege YMCA of the North Shore memberships, and excludes “Local Only” memberships, regular guest passes, and YMCA Nationwide visitors. Due to limited space, the member “bring a friend” guest benefit does not apply to outdoor pools and splash parks.

Add a Summer Caregiver
If you have a summer child caregiver who will be bringing your child(ren) to the pool it’s easy to upgrade your membership to add an extra adult for the summer! Just request an account change here, or contact your local YMCA membership director. *Please also be sure to also request to downgrade your membership after the summer if that’s your preference!
