Central Community Branch YMCA
Private
The Central Community Branch YMCA at 766 Main Street in Worcester, part of the YMCA of Central Massachusetts, runs a summer program (the Alden summer program) for youth across a roughly seven-week season from late June through mid-August. It also provides transportation to Camp Blanchard, a day camp on Manchaug Pond in Sutton, and offers teen leadership development for ages 13-16. Financial assistance is based on family size and income.
The practical details
We list only what the camp itself publishes, and programs change — dates, prices, ages and availability can all move after we check. Confirm the details on the camp’s own website and contact Central Community Branch YMCA directly before you register or pay. Last checked August 2026.

Powered by GoogleGot a membership to this Y to use the sauna and steam room which has been down over a month! No one seems to know when its going to be back up or even seem to care. No wonder so many people have left this place through out the years. Unprofessional and unorganized!
I’ve been coming here for years but I think it’s time to go elsewhere. Cardio machines have been inoperable for over a year. I know it’s not budget related since they’ve just purchased new weight equipment. It’s time to fix the cardio guys.
Love this gym, have been a member for years. Great classes, especially early morning ones. Swimming pool is historic with Houdini's famous experiments done at this YMCA pool!
My son's headphones were stolen outside of his bag. His gym bag that he is not allowed to bring inside of the gym for "safety concerns." I told them I know they are gone but I want someone held responsible. I was basically told by Cox it's my son's fault for not having a lock but this does not excuse the fact that she has someone in her facility that is pick pocketing people's bag. Very disappointed in her and "HER MEMBERS"
The summer camp is a let down. If your child is 7 or older they get to enjoy the actual summer camp experience by going to the day camp grounds. But be prepared to know if they're not 7 or over they will be stuck in a brick building all summer alternating between 2-3 rooms. Oh they let them swim every day. That's all you're getting for your $225 a week. I have also been getting $96 taken out of my account for 4 months and we have not used the Y once. I've asked for a refund numerous times. Trying to speak to any higher management is impossible. My kids need summer and school clothes and that money should be returned.
