Bringing Our Community Together

The Algona Family YMCA is more than a place to work out—it’s where our community comes together.

Events & Announcements

Throughout the year, we host special events, youth activities, and fundraising opportunities that support our mission to strengthen spirit, mind, and body for all. Check back often for updates on upcoming events, seasonal programs, and important facility notices that impact our members and families.

Wing Ding

The YMCA Winter Wing Ding is one of our most anticipated annual fundraising events. This lively evening features team trivia, silent auctions, food, drinks, and dancing—all in support of YMCA programs that make a difference in our community. Proceeds help fund youth development, healthy living initiatives, and financial assistance through the Open Doors Program.

Father–Daughter Dance

The Father–Daughter Dance is a cherished Algona YMCA tradition held annually on the Saturday before Valentine’s Day. Welcoming approximately 300 participants each year, this special evening creates lasting memories through music, dancing, and meaningful moments. The event celebrates connection, joy, and the importance of family in a warm, festive atmosphere.

Saturday Night Y

Saturday Night Y is a supervised middle school hangout designed to give teens a safe, fun place to connect with friends. Activities often include games, open gym time, swimming, and group activities led by YMCA staff. This event supports positive youth development by encouraging social connection, confidence, and healthy recreation in a welcoming environment.

Pool Closure Notice (April/May)

To continue providing a safe, high-quality aquatics experience, the Algona Family YMCA will temporarily close the pool for scheduled maintenance in April or May. This closure allows for replacement of the pool filter, routine maintenance, and system updates. These improvements ensure long-term reliability, water quality, and member safety. Dates and reopening information will be shared as soon as they are finalized.
