With transportation provided to and from both Gloucester and Rockport, we offer a variety of great trips. All ages welcome, under 12 must be accompanied by adult
Service Learning Trips
Coming into our fifth year of leading Y Teen Service Trips, what started as a “one shot deal”, has evolved into a major component of our work with teens throughout our YMCA. In 2010, we took fifteen teens to New Orleans to help the rebuilding efforts in the aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina & Rita. Through the experiences on that trip, that were universally described by our teens as “profound”, life-changing” and “awesome”, we were impelled to expand our thinking, and thus our scope of service.
FOR 2014: Navajo Nation, AZ
Middle School: February Vacation $1050 plus airfare (est $450) High School: April Vacation $ 950 plus airfare (est $450)
New Orleans, LA Y Teen Leaders Clubs
Committed to the values of CARING, HONESTY, RESPECT and RESPONSIBILITY, the members of the Cape Ann YMCA Teen Leaders Club have dedicated themselves to working together to “give back”. Since 1995, these teens have chosen to actively volunteer time and effort for the betterment of the community to which they belong.
Ages 14-18:
April Vacation
$1200, all-inclusive
Ages 14-18:
February Vacation $1595 plus airfare (est $900)
Nicaragua (Registration Closed)
Through individual and group-fundraising opportunities, we ensure these impactful trips are possible for all; in fact, on each of our trips over the past four years, we’ve had teens participate at zero-direct-cost to their families through these efforts. For more info, please visit www.northshoreymca.org/ servicetrips
This self-governed group of teens interacts closely with their “Leaders Club Advisor” and YMCA Professional Staff. One of the key components of the club is the concept of “being a leader 24/7”; that is to say that all involved strive to incorporate the values espoused and lessons learned into their daily life.
