THIS IS YOUR YEAR!
At the Akron Area YMCA, we are here for you.
In our Y, you’ll find more than just a place to work out. With opportunities to connect with new people, develop new skills, and explore new interests, you might just discover a new passion, too!
Our impeccably clean facilities are open and ready to help you meet your goals and find community--whatever that looks like for you.
Stay Connected ALL Summer
The Summer Bucket List challenge is a free and easy way to engage your spirit, mind and body and have some GREAT FUN during this great time of year. Make sure you join the FACEBOOK group for ideas and inspiration -- even after the challenge.
Use the Y all day, all night, all year
The Lake Anna YMCA is the first Y location in Northeast Ohio to offer 24-hour access/7-days a week to members. Anyone who is 18 years or older and a member of the Akron Area YMCA can use the Lake Anna branch by first registering.
Good People know Good People
We love to work with people who enjoy developing youth, being socially-conscious and supporting healthy lifestyles for all. But, sometimes good people are hard to find. We have current full and part-time openings, particularly in our areas of Early Care/Education and Before/After School Care. If you know a good person ... please make the introduction!

You can join online anytime, or you can contact our branches, schedule a tour, and join us in person. When you're ready, we'll be here. Become part of our Y family!
