MORE ABOUT THE MORRIS YMCA
In December 2014, the Morris Community YMCA and Morris Hospital & Healthcare Centers announced the formation of a partnership to enhance the health and wellness of Grundy County residents.
Under this multi-year plan, both organizations began working together to offer programs and services at the new temporary Morris Community YMCA location in downtown Morris, which opened to the public in January 2015.
As of June 2016, the Morris YMCA is home to more than 2,300 members.
