THE Y IS FOR YOUTH DEVELOPMENT FOR HEALTHY LIVING FOR SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY We believe all kids deserve the opportunity to discover who they are and what they can achieve. That’s why, through the Y, millions of youth today are cultivating the values, skills and relationships that lead to positive behaviors, better health and educational achievement.

CONGRATULATIONS! The YMCA of the Pikes Peak Region was named
“Best Gym" and
"Best Health Club"
in the Gazette's "Best of the Springs" which is conducted annually. VOTER'S CHOICE FOR BEST HEALTH CLUB
YMCA
The YMCA is home to many fitness fanatics, but for those looking to start a membership, the environment is encouraging. The YMCA is “best for families and anyone who is looking for a welcoming and accepting atmosphere,” one voter said. The YMCA is also “good for kids, adults and seniors. VOTER'S CHOICE FOR BEST GYM
YMCA Coloradans take advantage of the outdoors as often as possible. When the snow gets too deep, though, gyms are all around. The “YMCA is the best gym and fitness club,” one voter said. “They are family friendly with locations all over town.”
