COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP In 2012 the City of Colorado Springs and the YMCA of the Pikes Peak Region partnered to open and operate four outdoor aquatic centers. Our goal was to provide healthy programs and safe swimming for youth, families, adults and seniors.

Now in our second year, the partnership continues. We welcome you to enjoy Prospect Lake Beach, Monument Valley, Portal and Wilson Ranch Pools.

JOIN THE Y The Y is for everyone. Our programs, services and initiatives enable kids to realize their potential, prepare teens for college, offer ways for families to have fun together, empower people to be healthier in spirit, mind and body, prepare people for employment, welcome and embrace newcomers and help foster a nationwide service ethic.
