Welcome to The YMCA of Abilene

The YMCA of Abilene enriches kids, adults, families and communities through well-being and fitness, preschool and afterschool, camps, family time, swim lessons, youth sports, and other activities for people of all ages and abilities. We're more than a local health and fitness club with a pool and gym. At the Y, we help build a healthy spirit, mind and body for all with core values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility at the heart of everything we do.

Everyone is welcome at the Y. The YMCA is a nonprofit organization dedicated to building healthy, confident, connected and secure children, adults, families and communities. At the Y, our goal is that everyone, regardless of age, income or background, has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive.
