In November 1992 a small group of people interested in Montgomery County and its future gathered to begin the process of bringing a YMCA to Montgomery County. Many were interested in providing safe and wholesome activities for kids and families. The YMCA, with its over 176-year history of service to communities, is a leader in fitness, youth programs, swimming, recreation, child education, senior adults, and much more.
Our YMCA works collaboratively with community partners to improve the lives of children, adults, families, and the entire community. Our purpose is to strengthen and enrich the development of individuals and families through quality programs and services that build a healthy spirit, mind, and body for all.
Integral to everything that we do are our core values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility. Our Y serves people of all backgrounds, ages, capabilities, and income levels, providing financial assistance to those in need.
Encouraging, supporting, and improving healthy living habits, among our members and throughout the community, are central to our purpose. Our work also focuses on youth development through a wide variety of programs such as youth activities, day camps, swim lessons, organized sports, and parent-child adventures.
Financial assistance may be available for you and your entire family to join, thanks to the generosity of our donors. The Y uses 100 percent of donor contributions to provide financial assistance for members and to subsidize a wide range of mission programs. Our goal is to provide financial assistance to anyone who needs it to participate.
