About

The YMCA of Middletown is a community based not for profit organization dedicated to putting Judeo–Christian principles into practice through programs that build a healthy spirit, mind and body for all. Our YMCA Association began its service to the City of Middletown in 1882, and over the subsequent 136 years, expanded to serve all of Orange County and Southern Sullivan County. Although our name indicates our historical beginnings at our main branch at 81 Highland Avenue in Middletown, it does not adequately reflect all that we do within a 30 mile radius of our association’s headquarters. Currently, we operate primarily out of three facilities including our main branch and association headquarters in Middletown known as the YMCA of Middletown, the South Orange Family YMCA (nicknamed “SOFY”) in Monroe, and The Center For Youth Programs in Middletown- the home of our First Step Preschool, our summer day camp in Middletown and many other youth programs. In addition to these four facilities, we conduct a before & after school program known as Club Kid in over 20 schools throughout Orange County and operate 5 summer day camps: Camp FunSquad in Middletown, Camp Discovery in Harriman State Park, Camp Robbins in Walden, YMCA Town of Thompson Camp at the Town of Thompson Town Park and Preschool Summer Camp at the South Orange Family YMCA.
