Morris Family YMCA


The YMCA has been providing services and program to the Morris community since the 1970s.  Currently, the YMCA provides after school programs, summer camp & sports leagues in the Morris schools. In recent months, the YMCA was granted an official charter from its National Offices.  This charter provides an official name for this non-facility branch and begins the first step toward building a YMCA in Morris down the road, once funds are raised.
