Chincoteague Family YMCA
History:
In 2005, some Chincoteague Island
community members met at the town office regarding the possibility of a YMCA
on the Island. A year later, a feasibility survey proved an overwhelming
amount of support with 500 residents participating and a community meeting was
held to gauge the level of interest for an Island YMCA with 120 residents
attending. A committee was formed and volunteers began organizing and
running programs throughout the community. The Mid-Delmarva Family YMCA,
who operated branches in both Salisbury and Pocomoke, worked with the
volunteers to help organize and facilitate their programs.
In 2009, Chincoteague Island Family
YMCA opened the doors to a cardio-fitness facility on Maddox Blvd thanks to
the efforts of the Mid-Delmarva Family YMCA, the Chincoteague Island Advisory
Committee and the community.
