Revitalizing Our YMCA

Exciting transformations and updates are happening at the Athens-McMinn Family YMCA! We are thrilled to announce a renovation project focused on our locker room areas and ADA accessbility within our facility. This is more than just a renovation; it is a commitment to enhancing the member experience and meet the evolving needs of our community. 

This project will take place in several phases. Our goal is to minimize the impact it has on our membership and daily operations while also communicating any and all developments concerning daily usage. Please join us in our feelings of excitement as we start this journey soon. Read below for more details on phases and ways you can support this project!
