The Hyannis Youth and Community Center is a community center in the town of Barnstable, Massachusetts. It consists of two ice skating rinks, one being named after the late Joseph P. Kennedy Jr., who was killed when his B-24 Liberator exploded during a bombing mission. The smaller capacity rink, named after a Barnstable philanthropist, Patrick Butler, who died in 2009, can be melted down leaving a concrete floor for dry floor activities. A removable event floor can be placed over the ice in either rink for other short term non-ice events. The large Gymnasium offers six basketball hoops, removable bleacher seating and a curtain to break the space down into two full basketball or volleyball courts for maximum usage.
