McPherson Youth Center Policies
Court/Skate Park & Facility Permit Policy
UPDATED: 2/12/24
McPherson Youth Center Courts, Skate Park and Facilities are in the public domain and do not necessarily need a permit for random or impromptu use. However, all legally issued permits take preference over drop-in use at any site or on any playing surfaces.
NOTE: Regular or repeated meetings of a group of individuals using Courts or the Skate Park are considered organized use, which requires a Usage Permit from the YMCA of the North Shore/Youth Collaboration Board. Also, fees may be charged and all requirements must be met for permits to be issued as defined in this policy.
NOTE: All Usage Permits issued by the YMCA of the North Shore/Youth Collaboration Board are offered without regard to race, color, sex, religion, ancestry, national origin, sexual orientation, disability, and any other class or characteristic protected by law.
