Welcome back to Mills County Roots.

In this episode, we take you inside the Mills County YMCA in Glenwood, Iowa for a full tour of everything this incredible community space has to offer.

This isn’t just a gym… it’s a place built around healthy living, youth development, and social responsibility.

We sit down with YMCA leaders to talk about:

  • Fitness programs and classes for all ages
  • Youth sports, swim lessons, and childcare options
  • Community events and outreach programs
  • Scholarship opportunities so no one is turned away
  • How the YMCA creates a welcoming, judgment-free environment

You’ll also get a behind-the-scenes look at:

  • The indoor pool and aquatics programs
  • Youth and family spaces, including summer camps
  • Group fitness classes and cycling room
  • Gymnasium, pickleball, and sports programs
  • Child watch services for parents

From infants learning water safety to seniors staying active, the YMCA truly serves every stage of life.

If you’ve ever felt intimidated to start working out or wondered if there’s a place for you… this might be exactly what you’re looking for.
