The Danville Family YMCA has been selected as one of the top 10 recreation facilities in the world by Athletic Business Magazine.
In June, the YMCA was featured in the magazine as one of the top 66. Those selections were then judged by a panel of architects who chose the top 10 facilities of merit, according to a news release issued Friday.
“To be featured in the Top 66 issue of the magazine was a great honor, so when we found out our YMCA was in the top 10 we were amazed,” said Sarah Folmar, CEO of the Danville Family YMCA.
“With the generous support of our community, our Y has come a long way,” she said.
The news was announced Friday on the publication’s website. It will be published in the November print issue of the magazine.
In celebration of this top 10 award, the YMCA will be waving the $50 joiners fee for 10 days: Saturday through Oct. 25.
The magazine is geared toward recreation facilities of all types including universities, community centers and health clubs.
The feature includes pictures of the facility and a description of how the new Danville Family YMCA incorporates the history of the location as well as how it serves as a symbol of the future for the River District, according to the release.
