Welcome to the YMCA of Greater Charlotte

From energizing group fitness and premier wellness equipment to family-friendly programs, the Y has everything you need to make this your healthiest year yet!

YMCA Day Camp and Overnight Camp give kids the space to grow, explore, and build confidence through meaningful experiences. From local day camps to adventures at Camp Thunderbird and Camp Harrison, programs spark independence, connection, and fun in a safe, supportive environment families trust. Overnight Camp and Day Camp registration is open.

Spring is the perfect season for kids to stay active, build skills, and grow through teamwork at the Y! From soccer and NFL Flag Football to volleyball and gymnastics, our youth sports programs welcome all skill levels in a positive, supportive environment. Registration is now open! Help your athlete grow confidence, character, and a love of the game this spring.

At the Y, swim lessons are about more than learning strokes - they build confidence, safety, and fun in the water. From beginners to advanced swimmers, our supportive programs help kids and adults gain skills, develop strength, and grow into confident swimmers for life.
