About the WCY

The WCY serves Waldo County as the hub for healthy living, youth development, and social responsibility.  In May of 1977, the WCY was created as a force for good in the community. It became a stand alone 501(c)3 charitable organization in 1995. After 23 years as a “Y without Walls”, the WCY opened a fitness facility with gymnasium, track, weight room, and studio.  In 2009, the Tom and Sally Savage Pool Complex was added to fulfill its commitment to the community. In addition to the exercise and wellness facilities, the WCY offers high-quality, affordable childcare, after school programs for young teens, community activities for older adults, and sports leagues for children and adults.

“The WCY Sustaining Sponsors, Viking Lumber, Consumers Fuel, Ironwood Maine, Robbins Lumber, and First National Bank ensure our programs remain affordable, high-quality, and community-focused,” said WCY, in a news release.
