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!
SPRING CHALLENGE: We challenge our members to swim 45 laps! Members can track their own laps on our leaderboards in the Southeast Y Main Pool and Northwest Y pool areas. When you have completed 45 laps, you become one of our LAP LEADERS! Please report your laps to our Welcome Center staff, who will assist you in:
- Claiming your mini prize!
- Entering into our spring raffle!
- Adding your name to our LAP LEADER display in our lobby!
Raffle winners will be randomly chosen at the end of the challenge. We hope you join us and just keep swimming!
Contests, prizes, and raffles, oh my!
