Our youth programs, such as ymca preschool, dance, soccer, volleyballl, gymnastics, swimming, summer day camp, champion's league, and kim league basketball, offer a range of experiences that enrich cognitive, social, physical and emotional growth.

Aquatics and water safety - aquatics is perhaps the best known aspect of our rich heritage thanks to the swimming greats that began their careers at the huntington ymca. Under glen hummer's instruction, the ymca's swimming program produced olympic medalists gary dilley and matt vogel, along with renowned coach george haines, who himself instructed over 50 olympic medalists as founder of the santa clara swim club. Today, children and adults of all ages utilize our pools for swim lessons, competitions, recreational activities, training and therapy. As part of our partnership with the huntington county community school corporation, every third grade student in our county takes swimming lessons near the conclusion of each school year. Additionally, we're also proud to partner with organizations such as parkview huntington hospital, huntington university, pathfinder services, united way of huntington county, the otters swim team, local law enforcement, boy scouts of america, girl scouts of the usa and the american red cross.
