At the Y, we know parents need a break from time to time. With Kids Night Out, parents enjoy a night out while kids engage in fun and safe activities at the Y. Kids enjoy games, crafts, dinner, swimming and more centered around a unique monthly theme. Kids must be at least 3 but less than 13. Registration deadline is February 9.
The Strive for Life Foundation will be providing free youth heart screenings at Y centers. Don’t miss this opportunity to have your child’s heart checked. This free screening is available for those ages 8 to 25. We will have two locations:
Back by popular demand: we will be hosting a monthly AOA potluck. The YMCA will provide sandwiches, coffee, tea, and lemonade. Members can sign up to bring a side.

Please join us in the Wellness Corner as we discuss The Spanish Daughter by Lorena Hughes. There is no registration or RSVP necessary for this event, but please contact laurencrome@kansascityymca.org to reserve your Y-provided copy of this book, via Mid Continent Public library.

The Y is working to help ensure that our community has access to fresh, nutritious food through Mobile Pantry food distribution programs in partnership with Harvesters. The programs address a growing need for those unsure where their next meal will come from.
Participants stay in their vehicles while volunteers load fresh produce, canned goods and a variety of other non-perishable items into their vehicles. All in need are welcome. The Mobile Food Pantry at the North Kansas City YMCA occurs on the first Friday of each month.
