Take a virtual tour of our facility
The State College YMCA strengthens the foundations of our community through well-being and fitness, camps, family time, swim, sports and play, and other activities for people of all ages, incomes and abilities. We’re more than just a place to work out. At the Y, we help build a healthy spirit, mind and body for all with the core values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility at the heart of everything we do.
With a commitment to nurturing youth development, promoting healthy living, and fostering a sense of social responsibility, the Y ensures that every individual has access to the essentials needed to learn, grow and thrive.

While the State College Area School District participates in remote learning, Child Watch will not be offered at the State College Branch. If you have any questions, please contact Kayla Schubert by email at [email protected]. Thank you for your understanding.
