THE YMCA...MORE THAN A GYM, WE'RE A COMMUNITY!
The Fremont Family YMCA is proud to partner with various businesses and non-profits to provide outreach programs to enhance the health and well being of the community.
Special Olympics
We are blessed to have our partnership with the Fremont YMCA which offers our athletes a chance to improve their physical fitness and wellness with access to the best facilities around. Right now there are nearly 65 athletes that compete in a number of sports. On the Fremont Family YMCA campus, our athletes get to practice on the indoor tennis courts when the weather is bad and get their competitive swimming laps in the only Olympic-sized pool in the area. Additionally, we utilize the basketball courts during the basketball season to work on our team skills and 5 on 5 teamwork. For over 10 years now, the Fremont YMCA has hosted the East Region basketball championships in late February. In the spring we work on volleyball to get ready for our competitions in April/May. The scholarship program that our athletes can take advantage of also allows our flag football, golf, and track athletes access to weight and cardio machines plus free weights to improve their strength, stamina, and flexibility in order to be the best athlete they can be.
If you are interested in becoming a Fremont Special Olympics athlete or want to become involved in our program you can find out even more information by reaching us at www.facebook.com/SpecialOlympicsFremont or shoot us an email at piercy92068@hotmail.com or you can even give us a call/text at 402-720-3121 and speak with Cory Piercy, Head of Delegation.

1st Grade learn to swim
The YMCA is providing every first grader in the Fremont Public Schools, Bergan Catholic Schools, Trinity Lutheran Schools, Cedar Bluffs Public Schools, and Arlington Public Schools with the opportunity to learn to swim as part of their physical education. Through the generosity of the Pinnacle Bank, this program keeps kids safe by learning the ability to swim in a safe environment.
The YMCA believes it is crucial for every child to learn how to swim. In the United States, drowning is the second leading cause of unintentional injury death among children aged 1–14 years.
