Our History

The YMCA of Superior California was formed in 1866 by returning Civil War veterans. The first YMCA building was at Fifth and J Streets. This facility was used from 1899 until construction began on a five-story building at the same site in 1913. The downtown YMCA relocated to twenty-first and W street in 1951 and became the Central Family YMCA. In 1959, the YMCA added the Northeast Family YMCA, located on Eastern Avenue. Currently, the YMCA is expanding into South Placer County, Elk Grove, and El Dorado County. The programs offered by the YMCA are far different today from 20, 40, and 100 years ago. What remains constant, though, is the Y's ability to adapt to society's changing needs and to keep developing programs which meet those needs.
