Event Details
Get ready for a day full of energy, learning, and family fun! Join us for Healthy Kids Day® at the MetroWest YMCA on Saturday, April 25, at the Hopkinton Outdoor Center—free and open to the public.
Kick off the day with two exciting fun runs: the Family Trail Run and the Kids’ Dash, perfect for younger participants to jump into the action.
From 10:00 AM–1:00 PM, families can enjoy a wide variety of hands-on activities designed to do together, including live music, gardening, art and STEM challenges, sports, camp tours, and more. Adventurous kids can try rock climbing on our 40’ indoor wall or test their aim at archery.
Families will also connect with local organizations offering hands-on activities, outdoor experiences, and helpful wellness resources.
Best suited for ages 2–14, this event offers something for every stage, while giving parents and caregivers plenty of ways to join in the fun.
