Bringing the YMCA to Your Neighborhood
Y on the Fly is the YMCA of Central Florida’s mobile outreach program designed to connect children and families with free, enriching out-of-school time experiences, especially during summer months when access to structured activities can be limited.
This mobile YMCA van delivers fun, fitness and nourishment directly to neighborhoods across Central Florida. From apartment communities to local parks, churches and community centers, Y on the Fly brings joyful play, healthy snacks and trusted YMCA staff to create safe, inclusive spaces where every child can thrive.
At the Y, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to play, grow and belong—no matter where they live. Y on the Fly is how we bring that promise to life.

- Supporting physical and mental wellness in a fun, familiar format
- Promoting health and community engagement through a mobile unit
