Our Story.

Over the years, our YMCA has responded to the changing needs of our communities. Today, our Y is made up of people of all ages and from every walk of life working side by side to strengthen our community. Together we work to ensure everyone, regardless of gender, income, faith, sexual orientation or cultural background, has the opportunity to live life to its fullest.

Our Beginnings


  • The Red Wing YMCA was first formed as a bible study group for young men in 1869. An 1875 membership drive resulted in 59 members who paid one dollar each to join. The interest was unsustained though and by 1893, YMCA activities were held in a rented space elsewhere in Red Wing.

  • In 1909, James Lawther gave $51,000 to construct a new YMCA at the present site. The original building housed a pool, a gym, several meeting rooms, and sleeping rooms. At one time there was a single lane bowling alley and a tennis court.
