Giving Opportunities
Capital Development efforts allow the YMCA to expand its reach
and multiply the impact of its programs and services. Expansions
or renovations of existing facilities and/or the development
of new facilities ensure that the YMCA is ready to meet the
ever changing needs of our community.
Current Development Projects:
Arapahoe Aquatics Center – A new
neighborhood gathering place
No doubt you have unforgettable memories from your childhood
of long days by the pool with your family and friends. As you
may have noticed, in recent years the Y community has been
without an outdoor pool in the Boulder Valley area. Now a new
era of family time by the pool is about to dawn as the Aquatics
Center at the Arapahoe YMCA becomes a reality!
An outdoor pool and much more
Complete with spray park, zero-entry warm water recreational
and teaching pool, lap pool, and social gathering area, the
Arapahoe Aquatic Complex will allow the YMCA to address critically
needed health and recreation opportunities for the East County
community.
The center will add many benefits to our community. YMCA
members from across the Boulder Valley area will again have
a place to come together to connect with one another while
area kids enjoy the great outdoors and their friends. Many
will benefit from the addition of accessible swim lessons and
water safety programs. Others will experience relief from pain
while participating in water exercise programs to increase
their health!
Our aquatics programs help youth go above and beyond by:
- Building self-esteem and self-reliance—Encouraging
personal growth.
- Teaching Values—Developing moral
and ethical behavior.
- Improving Personal and Family Relationships—Learning
to care about, communicate and cooperate with family and
friends.
- Appreciating Diversity—Respecting
people of different ages, abilities, incomes, races, religions,
cultures and beliefs.
- Becoming Better Leaders and Supporters—Learning
to give-and-take necessary work toward to the common good.
- Developing Specific Skills—Acquiring
new knowledge and learn ways to grow in spirit, mind, and
body.
- Having Fun—Sharing time with friends and
family and connecting!
