After 100 years of successfully serving our vibrant community, the YMCA of Greater Boston is proud to announce the renovation of our historic Huntington Avenue Y. Our investment in change extends beyond the bricks and mortar and into the lives of Bostonians. The Y is a place for people of all ages, cultures and interests, and once completed, our new home will include exciting features guaranteed to make a difference in our community. We broke ground on the renovations last fall, and are looking forward to bringing you updates on progress. View our construction photos below to find out what's happening behind the scenes!

As a Personal Trainer and Group Exercise Instructor at the Burbank YMCA, I spend my time helping people keep their bodies strong and healthy through physical exercise and encouraging healthy lifestyle habits. However, as summer rolls around and we increase our outdoor activities with the sun's rays becoming stronger, a new focus and concern arises - proper skincare. 
There are many great reasons to ask the question “Is my child ready for overnight summer camp?” Maybe you’re nostalgic and remember all the great summers you once had at overnight camp with your friends. Or maybe your kids are spending too much time plugged in and not getting enough time outdoors, a common problem for many kids. Perhaps your child even brought up the idea on their own. Whatever the reason, this is a great opportunity for a two-way conversation with your child. The more you discuss overnight camp with your child, the more worthwhile, inspiring and enjoyable a camper’s summer experience will be.
