A Strong Case for building the New YMCA:
-
Create the region's only full-service recreational facility
-
Improve regional health and wellness through fitness
-
Help local kids learn to swim
-
Give teens a safe, nurturing environment
-
Provide needed racquet facilities
Impacting our Future:
We have a vision. We see every kid in the Grand Traverse Bay Area have the chance to learn to swim. We see every family enjoying the opportunity to grow strong together in spirit, mind and body. We see whole communities becoming healthier and improving their quality of life. We see teen programming every weekend. We will have families participating regardless to ability to pay.
We have embarked on a capital campaign to raise funds for a new community YMCA. The task is challenging but we are committed to success. This is truly a project for the community and by the community.
When will the new Y be open for business?
When you help us build the New YMCA by making a significant donation. Eighty-six percent (86.2%) of the project funding for the first essential phase will be donations. Our Campaign Goal is $12 million which we have raised $5.4 million and still need $6.6 million donated. The faster this is donated at any level, the faster the New Y will be built.
