TransportationParents are responsible for getting kids to and from the YMCA. You are welcome to arrange carpools with other parents, we just can't coordinate them for you due to archdiocese policy.
We do not currently have the numbers needed to hire a bus for the group, but if we see an increase in registrations, it is a possibility for future years.
