DeVos-Blum Family YMCA of Boynton Beach: Building Strong Kids, Strong Families and Strong Communities Have you visited the DeVos-Blum Family YMCA of Boynton Beach? Located on the northeast corner of Old Boynton Road and Military Trail, this YMCA is not the old, dark Y where you learned to swim as a kid…yes, both swimming lessons and kids play prominent roles in the DeVos-Blum Y, but there all similarity ends. This Y features two indoor pools, one complete with a giant water slide and mushroom fountain; a full-size gymnasium; a fitness center; a sports field and two playgrounds; a massage therapy/wellness center; a steam room; a sauna and a whirlpool; a state-of-theart teen center and a fully-accredited preschool! The DeVos-Blum Family YMCA of Boynton Beach and the Peter Blum Family YMCA of Boca Raton form the YMCA of South Palm Beach County. As part of the nation’s largest community service organization, these two YMCA’s serve more than 55,000 community residents annually. From babies to seniors and all ages in between, the Y offers something to fit every need and lots of fun every day. Activities include summer camps, preschool, after school programs, exercise classes, senior wellness programs, yoga, pilates, Capoeira and Zumba. Our year-round sports program includes flag football, soccer, cheerleading, basketball, dance and much more. Memberships to the Y offer unlimited access to the entire facility and free babysitting and kids clubs activities while the parents work out. Financial assistance is awarded to those who are unable to afford the programs and services the Y offers. Last year, over 1,900 Boynton area residents were awarded over $475,000 through the Partners’ Financial Assistance Program, which is funded through contributions from area residents and businesses.
