About Us
For over 169 years, the YMCA of Metropolitan Detroit has served communities in the four counties of Southeast Michigan including more than 70 years in the City of Birmingham at our current location. For the first years of the branch’s existence, the YMCA used area facilities and homes to conduct its meetings and programs. Soon, the YMCA purchased a home on Maple Avenue to coordinate the activities of the association. A brand new state-of-the-art facility was built in 1955 at a cost of $1 million. Since then, the Birmingham Family YMCA served as a community centered for people of all ages and abilities. The Y campus became a key resource providing a safe and educational atmosphere where relationships developed, healthy activities conducted and family support services provided to the communities surrounding Birmingham. The Birmingham YMCA is also home of the renowned Birmingham Blue Dolphins; one of southeastern Michigan’s most esteemed and accomplished swim teams graduating more than a few outstanding collegiate and Olympic-caliber swimmers.
