Celebrating 45 Years in Monroe County
The Monroe County YMCA is celebrating its forty-fifth anniversary this year! Our Southeast Y pool first opened in 1980, starting our journey of forty-five years of service in the Bloomington community. Though our fortieth anniversary plans were upended in 2020, we are excited to sprinkle in some fun during our forty-fifth year to make up for lost time.
Our Southeast Y is getting a retro makeover with '80s-inspired colors, and we’re rolling out fun challenges to thank our members for being a part of the Y family. Join us for contests, giveaways, and more to celebrate our forty-fifth birthday!
FALL CHALLENGE
From August 18-October 31, we challenge you to attend 45 Group Ex classes! Add your tracking sheet to the challenge binder in our Welcome Center and track which classes you’ve taken, when you’ve attended them, and which instructor encouraged you to try the class. In our lobby, we will update the top ten leaderboard on a weekly basis.
When you complete all 45 Group Ex classes, you become one of our Group Ex Go-Getters! Please report your completed sheet to our Welcome Center staff so they can assist you in:
- Claiming your mini prize
- Entering your name in our fall raffle for a chance to win exclusive Y swag AND one month of a complimentary Paid Group Ex class of your choice
- Adding your name and photo to our Group Ex Go-Getters board
Raffle winners will be randomly chosen at the end of the challenge.
