West Suburban YMCA Announces Free Summer Saturdays in July and August

Announcement Event

This summer, the West Suburban YMCA invites the entire community to enjoy Free Summer Saturdays, a special initiative offering complimentary access to WSYMCA facilities every Saturday in July and August. Both WSYMCA branches—Church Street and Wells Avenue in Newton—will welcome members and non-members alike for a day of fitness, fun, and connection.

Whether you're cooling off in the pool, exploring new workouts, or enjoying time with family, Free Summer Saturdays offer something for all ages. Amenities include indoor pools, basketball courts, group exercise classes, and more. Indoor and outdoor pickleball is available at the Wells Avenue Y.

“The YMCA is about community, belonging, and well-being,” said Jack Fucci, President and CEO of the West Suburban YMCA. “With Free Summer Saturdays, we’re opening our doors wider to ensure everyone has the opportunity to stay active, connect with neighbors, and experience the Y—free of charge.”

Free Summer Saturdays include:

  • Free admission every Saturday in July and August from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM
  • Access to both YMCA locations:
    • 276 Church Street, Newton
    • 135 Wells Avenue, Newton
  • Lap swimming
  • Kid-friendly open swim during select times
  • Group fitness classes
  • Indoor basketball courts
  • Indoor and outdoor pickleball (Wells Avenue Y only)

All visitors must check in with a photo ID at the Welcome Center. Free Summer Saturday visitors who are under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
