Dan McKinney Family YMCA

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who has shared your Y experience on our photo wall! 💙

You shared the little moments that make a big difference — the workouts that clear your head, the programs that bring your family together, the friendships that make you feel at home and the moments that help make your days a little less crazy and your lives a little better.

Your stories are what make the Y more than a place to work out. They’re what make it a community.

More Connection. More Community. More Y.

What if your teen could draft real legislation, argue a court case, or run for Youth Governor? 🏛️

YMCA Youth and Government is coming to the Dan McKinney Family Y and we want YOUR teen in the room.

This is not just a club. It is a full civic experience where high school students step into real government roles, debate real issues, build real friendships, and even travel to Sacramento to put it all into action.

Last Sunday was one for the books! From new friendships to outdoor fun, we kicked off a new season of Adventure Clubs.

The Y is more than a membership… it’s a place where moms like Lindsay can have peace of mind knowing her child is learning, playing and growing in preschool while she gets a few hours to run errands, take care of things around the house and get a little time back for herself. And with Y financial assistance, more families can access these opportunities.

More connection. More opportunity. More Y.
