The YMCA of Natrona County is incredibly grateful for the amazing community support for Phase I of our Building Tomorrow Today campaign. In January of 2017, the doors to our beautiful new facility were proudly opened to our community. In over three years of operation we have seen more than 350,000 visits! Membership projections, revenue projections and program opportunities in this new facility have surpassed all expectations. Thank you to all of the donors who made Phase 1 a reality. We are grateful for such a giving community.
Thursday, August 20, 2020 we broke ground on Phase II of our Building Tomorrow Today campaign. We have raised 70% of our $10.8 million goal. Phase II includes a family pool, lap pool, hot tub, universal locker rooms, pool viewing area, member lounge, youth activity zone, community studio and more. The expected completion date is the end of December 2021.

Thank you for supporting the YMCA of Natrona County and our promise of strengthening community!
We are excited to have the opportunity to make swim lessons and safety around water more accessible to the Natrona County community upon completion of Phase II.
Drowning can happen nearly anywhere with standing water. We offer a Safety Around Water program that teaches kids and adults essential water safety skills that reduce the risk of drowning and build confidence in and around water.
YMCA Swim Lessons help youth and adults learn the skills they need to make swimming a lifelong pursuit for staying healthy. Swim lessons provide important life skills that could save a life and will benefit students for a lifetime.
We are surrounded by water in Natrona County: rivers, lakes, streams, ponds and pools. As the founder of group swim lessons, we look forward to expanding our outreach around water safety in our community!
