The Oswego YMCA is the oldest continuous community service organization. It has been active in Oswego since 1855. Our focus is on family and our membership is all-inclusive. We are convinced that every kid and every community deserves a YMCA. It is our belief that all kids are at-risk, not just "at-risk" kids. YMCA staff and volunteers are committed to teaching positive life skills, support and strengthening families, developing health in spirit, mind and body, offering quality experiences that are affordable and to creating an environment where everyone is welcome.
