Our History

The YMCA was founded in London in 1844. It started as a bible study group to give guidance to the young men of the industrial revolution. It has since grown into the largest non profit organization in the world. In 1982 Dr. Barret Lessenberry presented the idea of a YMCA to the Glasgow/Barren County community. It started in churches, homes, and local businesses. In 1992 the Barren County Family YMCA opened its doors, having an indoor pool, gymnasium, walking track, and nursery. The YMCA expanded their building in 1998. Today, after several renovations, our YMCA serves over 6000 members. We offer financial assistance to those who qualify, and do not turn away those in need. The YMCA strives to meet the needs of the community, and promote safe, communal, family oriented activities.
