Note to Parents:
We understand that you may have some concerns about leaving your teen at a dance. Please know that we offer more than dancing, MSM is about having something for everyone to do. We offer sports on one side of our gym, tournaments (pool, table tennis, poker, guitar hero) and video game free play in our Teen Activity Center, karaoke, a concession stand and much more.

How we protect your teen:

• YMCA professional Staff are at every MSM
• Wanding (metal detectors) every person, student or adult, that enters the building
• Checking coats, bags and cell phones at the door
• Students can only leave with an adult. Adults are allowed in MSM, however, they must be escorted by a MSM Staffer
• We have a no touching and no grinding policy

As you can see, we take our teens' safety seriously. We go the extra mile to protect while offering a GREAT time for your teen on Saturday nights!
