YMCA looks to next phase of project

CHAMPAIGN – The Champaign County YMCA today announced the public phase of a $7 million capital campaign that will enable its move to southwest Champaign.

The YMCA has already raised $3 million toward that goal, Chief Executive Officer Wade Hampton said. The Y hopes to raise enough in the next six months to enable it to start building a 65,000-square-foot facility off Windsor Road east of the Zahnd Park athletic fields.
