Welcome!

Golden Mountain Summer Program begins June 24.

Golden Mountain Summer Program is among nearly two dozen Y experiences offered around the Boston metro area, ensuring kids have a fun and exciting summer!

At the Y, kids spend the day creating arts and crafts, exploring science and technology, swimming, participating in field trips, exploring nature, learning about our many cultures and making new friends and memories. Summer learning, including literacy activities, is also part of the Y summer experience.

If you have additional questions about our summer program, feel free to request more info.

Golden Mountain Summer Program

Children have a blast while enhancing their understanding of the Y core values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility. They engage in character-building activities including community exploration, arts and crafts, iPlay, swimming and hands-on enrichment programs. The program builds positive relationships, enhances social interactions and strengthens self-esteem and confidence, as well as builds leadership skills. Children have fun and grow as life-long learners in a positive, caring and safe environment. Key program elements include literacy and summer learning, creative arts, field trips, sports, games and aquatics. 

Ages: 5 to 12
