The YMCA of Timmins' Story

This yard stick is a memento from the Timmins YMCA’s first facility: an old school house on the hill circa 1938.  With a charter date of 1995, we are one of the youngest YMCAs but a lot has happened since we moved into our new home in 2003. 

We’ve been constantly renovating our location to make it serve our child care and before and after school care programs.  We have opened another before and after school site at Bertha Shaw Public School in order to provide care in South Porcupine.  These changes at our main location have turned us into a one stop childcare and day camp location, enabling parents to feel confident that their children are in a fun, safe and nurturing environment.

This yardstick is a measure of how far we’ve come!
