Today, we recognize Juneteenth, which commemorates the emancipation of enslaved African Americans and celebrates freedom, resilience and hope.

As we reflect on this important moment in our nation's history, we reaffirm our commitment to building a community where everyone belongs and can thrive.

YMCA of Greater Indianapolis centers will be open until 1 p.m. today.

Keeping you informed, Baxter Y family! ☔️ ⚡️

Severe weather is expected across Central Indiana this afternoon and evening, with the chance for strong storms, high winds, hail, heavy rain and possible tornadoes.

We're keeping a close eye on the forecast and are ready if conditions change. The safety of our members, guests and staff is always our top priority.

If we need to make any changes to YMCA programs, services or facility operations, we'll share updates through the YMCA app, our website and social media channels.

Please stay weather aware, give yourself extra time to travel if needed and follow local weather alerts.

Stay safe, YMCA family. We're here for you.

The medals are great, but the memories are even better. Our Baxter YMCA athletes brought energy, determination and encouragement to this year's All-City Track & Field Meet. We're proud of every athlete who stepped onto the track and field and represented our YMCA community so well.

☀️Summer weather is here and we’re excited to see everyone at our outdoor pool! ☀️

It will take a little while longer for our wading pool to open. Safety is our number one priority and we encountered a small issue to resolve before that space can open. We’re working as quickly as possible and anticipate opening early next week.

Luckily, our Olympic size pool is large enough for everyone to enjoy. Let’s make this summer the best one yet!

Baxter was honored to host the Chin Ministers Fellowship of Indiana. It was a great day of prayer, fellowship, and discussion about how CMFI and the YMCA can collaborate to serve our community better.
