Phase 1: Building the Foundation for a Stronger Community
Phase 1 of the Waushara Community YMCA project is all about creating a vibrant, inclusive space where our community can come together to connect, grow, and thrive. The centerpiece of this phase is the construction of a welcoming facility that offers something for everyone. Imagine entering a bright, open lobby where neighbors meet, friendships are formed, and a sense of belonging is cultivated. From here, members can access a wide range of amenities, including a full-size gymnasium for sports and recreation, group fitness studios for every skill level, and a community space for events, programs, and celebrations. This phase also includes a safe, high-quality childcare center to support working families and give children a fun and enriching environment to learn and play.
One of the most exciting features of Phase 1 is the elevated walking track, providing a year-round space for people to stay active and healthy regardless of weather conditions. Whether it’s parents staying fit while kids play, seniors staying mobile, or young athletes training for their next big goal, this facility will be a hub for health and wellness. This first phase lays the groundwork for all the services and programs that will make the Y a vital resource for everyone in Waushara County. It’s not just a building—it’s the foundation of a stronger, more connected community.
