Each month we read a new book and meet to discuss it together! Our selections span a wide range of genres and topics to keep things fresh, and they’re always thoughtful, engaging, and discussion-worthy.

How to get the book: Copies are available to check out from the front desk up to one month prior to our meeting, and no later than one week before the meeting. Books are provided by the Maricopa County Library District.

Join us for a fun, social space to play tabletop games, meet new people, and enjoy some friendly competition. Please register everyone who will be in attendance so we can prepare the correct amount of materials. Parent’s will need to accompany any children.

Enjoy a movie with your YMCA family as we head to Harkins theatre.
