Lincoln, Graphic Designer for the YMCA of Snohomish County, visited Explorer Camp to teach cartooning. Campers learned to draw Sylvester and then took their new skills and created their own cartoons. Thank you, Lincoln, for sharing your time and talent with our campers!

The Y nurtures the potential of every youth and teen, improves the community's health and well-being, and provides opportunities to give back and support neighbors. The Y is for everyone. We believe that everyone, regardless of age, income or background, has the opportunity to be healthy, welcomed, confident, connected, and secure.

Volunteer coaches make our work possible. Thank you for volunteering your time, Jennifer! We appreciate you and your leadership!
We wrapped up our 4th season of YMCA basketball, & my 1st as a head coach! So proud of “ The Squad” this season. This was a very spirited bunch 😂. They were really challanged this season ( most had played and I had 6 returning kids), but they rose to the occassion! Here is the part where I tell you we have a break… just kidding! I am volunteering with the Monroe YMCA’s Miracle Leauge this weekend, and Tay already had skills and drills for football today. We stay ready 🥳!

Thanks to generous grant funding from Y-USA, we were able to successfully provide vital water safety education to 646 children across the county. The Safety Around Water (SAW) program, which runs every year during the last two weeks of June, aims to equip children with essential skills to ensure their safety in and around water.

We love our Miracle League Baseball buddies! Thank you to volunteers from EvergreenHealth Monroe for joining us on the field! Here's what they had to say about their volunteer experience: "EvergreenHealth Monroe is truly grateful for the opportunity to support the Miracle League and participate in last Saturday's games. It was both a humbling and rewarding experience for all of us. We hope to be invited back next year!"

What a wonderful celebration of our youth leadership programs last night at Everett High School! We celebrated the incredible youth, Y staff, and volunteers who inspire, motivate, challenge, and impact our community with their work. Staff and students shared highlights and testimonials from Youth and Government, Mock Trial, Leaders Club, Big Brothers Big Sisters, My Achievers Program (MAP), Skate, Miracle League, and 3rd Grade Swim. Our programs are filled with amazing youth who truly are the future leaders and changemakers of Snohomish County.
