Welcome to The Switch Yard

Bancroft Youth Unlimited

Family BBQ & Lawn Games

The Switch Yard team invites you to join us on Friday, June 6th @ 5:30pm for a Family BBQ & Lawn Games.

The community has been very generous and our fundraising goal is a little lower this year, so we decided to try something different! Instead of an auction, we’re inviting people to join us for some food and family-friendly games so we can enjoy one another’s company and celebrate the great year we’ve had at The Switch Yard!

Admission is by donation. Proceeds will be used to help us continue providing youth programming for young people in our community.

Bring your own lawn chair!

Our Programs

Thanks for stopping by! Check out the programs at The Switch Yard here.

“The Switch Yard Youth Centre is a place youth in Bancroft can come, feel loved, safe and know that the volunteers care and are genuine in asking about our weeks and how we are doing.”

New Decade. New Look. Same Great Switch Yard!

To celebrate 30 years of serving youth in Bancroft, the Switch Yard has a new look! In order to stay with the railway theme, the new icon is inspired by a railroad switch stand. This fun new logo will not replace the Bancroft Youth Unlimited logo, but rather will compliment it even better than the former ‘Switch Yard tracks’ logo did. New Decade. New Look. Same Great Switch Yard.
