Here at the Cass County Family Y, we understand that not all households are alike. We have memberships tailored to single-parent households as well as households with two adults. But, increasingly, many homes have more than one generation living in them. Adult children don't always move away as soon as they graduate high school. Elderly grandparents are often cared for while living with their adult children. We recognize these situations and we are offering a new membership type designed to help keep everyone in the family active while also saving you some cash! 

Starting now, a family can add up to two additional adults to their membership for just $10 per month per adult! That's a huge savings over the individual adult plans! Stop by to upgrade your membership to include your adult loved ones and let's make 2017 your family's healthiest year yet!

Hey service men and women! Did you know that the Cass County Family Y gladly opens its doors to you when you're home on leave? Not just during the holidays, but year-round! Just bring in a copy of your leave paperwork and enjoy free access to our facility and all it has to offer for the duration of your leave. Only have an electronic copy? No problem. Just email it to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to you for your selfless service! 

The next time you see Cass County Sheriff’s Deputy Gary Armstrong, congratulate him on winning the 2016 Cass County Family YMCA’s Local Hero Contest! He was nominated by his daughter Karli. I’ll let her do all the talking:

Karli says of her father: “ From saving me from spiders or childhood nightmares to saving Cass County from all the bad guys, Gary Armstrong has always been a true superhero. He’s been in law enforcement for over 25 years and has been changing lives ever since he first put on a uniform. One of the most admirable qualities my father has is he’s always helping others, even when he’s not wearing his badge. There have been countless times where we’ve been out as a family while he’s off duty, and he has pulled over to help someone having car troubles or some other kind of difficulty. He’s always willing to put his life on hold to help others. He faces a chance of not coming home every time he puts a uniform on, but he never fails to put others in front of him anyways. With everything that’s been going on in the world lately, it’s important that we still show support and appreciation for all of the hard-working officers out there. Gary Armstrong is an accurate representation of what a real superhero should be.”
