YMCA Lunenburg County
Description
Our History
In 1989 YMCA Lunenburg County opened in Bridgewater on Dominion Street to meet a demand for quality, affordable child care in Lunenburg County. After moving to the Bridgewater Plaza, the YMCA began to offer fitness and health programs and expanded its childcare services.
In 1995 the YMCA moved into 416 King St. in Bridgewater. Although this move significantly expanded its fitness and health programs, rapid growth and demand for new programs quickly resulted in the facility becoming woefully inadequate.
In the year 2000 the YMCA and the Nova Scotia Community College formed a partnership based on shared values and mission for serving the community. Two years later, on September 10, 2002 they entered into an agreement to work together towards the construction of a new YMCA on the NSCC Campus in Bridgewater. More than $990,000 was raised to build the new facility, which was officially opened by The Honourable Myra A. Freeman on May 4th, 2005.
After speaking with the Parent Advisory Committee in early 2009, YMCA Lunenburg County formed an agreement with local education services. Sharing a vision to promote personal growth as individuals and members of the community, a thriving after school program within the walls of Hebbville Academy emerged.
During thorough assessment by our Board of Directors in 2011, a decision was made to grow a new after school program into a familiar area for YMCA Lunenburg County - 416 King St. Bridgewater. This development notably improved our ability to meet the increased demand for quality child care services in Bridgewater.
