healthy living

When you join the Y you’re joining far more than a place to work out. You are coming together with men, women and children from the Hammond area who are committed to youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. We’re here beside you every day.

When children and teens are involved at the Y they don't just learn sports - they build confidence, form friendships and learn core values.

community

We want to be more than a destination - we want to be an active member of our community. All year long we offer programs that are open to everyone - not just members. We are your Y.
