Mission: Guided by the YMCA of the USA, a group of Northfield community members joined together in the spring of 2005 to form the Northfield Area Family YMCA. Initially known as the “Y Northfield Committee,” this enthusiastic group led a community-wide effort to launch the YMCA you see today including offices, a Health and Wellness Center in the Northfield Retirement Community, and programs running in over twenty different locations around town. We aspire to be a premier gathering place for our community. We will work as a trusted partner and collaborator with the many other organizations in our community that provide programs and services to enrich Northfield, building a healthier, more active and more engaged community. (Less)
