The Clinton County Family YMCA have a very exciting opportunity to raise $44,000 for our Aquatics Center. The Community Foundation of Clinton County has awarded us a $44,000 grant to replace the pool’s filtration system. This grant is contingent upon us matching the $44,000 they have allocated for the project by March 30. If you would like to make a donation or volunteer to help create a sustainable Aquatics Center for the future of our Y please visit the front desk and ask how you can get involved. Over the last few years our pool has struggled to operate efficiently. We are excited for the opportunity to improve this amenity for the health and wellness of our community.
The ‘Y’ has also released its Winter Activity Guide for February through April.
