Athol Area YMCA
Who We Are
The Athol Area YMCA is the leading community service organization working to improve the health and well-being of people in the North Quabbin region, focusing on youth development, healthy living and positive connections for all. We provide a wide variety of programs and services including childcare, summer camp, youth sports, aquatics, senior programs, exercise classes and facilities, adult sports, teen leadership development and a 20 room residential center.
What We Do
The Athol Young Men?s Christian Association (YMCA) is committed to strengthening and enriching the lives of all individuals, families and our community through quality programs and services that build healthy spirit, mind and body. The Athol Area YMCA was founded in 1859 and has been serving this area since. Our current facility (built in 1911) provides the space for most of our programming and we also offer some off-site senior exercise programs in Athol and Petersham. Our resident camp, Camp Wiyaka, began operating in 1921 and has continued to serve children each summer. The YMCA was a founding member of the Athol Area United Way.
