Discovery Programs for Youth (Ages 8–14)
At Fremont Family YMCA, our Discovery Programs offer youth a welcoming space to explore hobbies, spark creativity, and build lasting friendships. Designed for ages 8–14, these programs feature a wide variety of activities—including e-sports, coloring, board games, puzzles, crafts, and other hands-on experiences. Whether your child loves gaming, enjoys being artistic, or thrives in collaborative play, our programs encourage self-expression, problem-solving, and connection in a fun, supportive environment. These activities will take place in the Hub, formerly known as the Underground.
