The Kannapolis YMCA is one of six Rowan-Cabarrus YMCA branches and serves the Kannapolis, NC region. We’re more than just a place to work out.

The Kannapolis YMCA strengthens the foundations of our community through well-being and fitness, camps, family time, swim, sports and play, and other activities for people of all ages, incomes and abilities. At the Y, we help build a healthy spirit, mind and body for all with the core values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility at the heart of everything we do. The Y is welcome to all, allowing everyone the opportunity to join or participate when financial assistance is needed.

We love our lifeguards at the Kannapolis YMCA! This Friday July 31st is Lifeguard Appreciation Day so please take the time to stop by our lobby and leave a note of kind words and encouragement to let the team know how much we appreciate all of their efforts to keep us safe while having fun in the pool!

Did you catch us on the Today Show this morning? We sponsored a segment featuring overnight campers from Frost Valley YMCA and day campers from YMCA of Greater New York, showcasing the friendships, belonging, and sense of community that camp creates.
On Wednesday, Campfire Across America continues that tradition, reminding us that some of the best connections are made around a campfire, one story, song, and conversation at a time.
Find a local YMCA hosting an in-person or symbolic campfire, join a livestreamed cam pfire, and get important safety information at ymca.org/campfire.
