Try Something New at the Outdoor Center!

 

The MetroWest YMCA is a cause-driven charitable organization dedicated to youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility.  For over 50 years, we have helped members improve their health while building a stronger sense of community.
 

Our Outdoor Center in Hopkinton offers year-round fun for the whole family. The property, located on 122 acres in east Hopkinton next to the Ashland Reservoir, has hiking trails, an outdoor pool, a 50-foot indoor rock climbing wall, low and high ropes courses, a teaching kitchen, an archery shoot, geocaching, soccer fields, tennis courts, and a cricket pitch!  In the summer, we host an award-winning summer camp for youth ages 3-16.
