YMCA services in the Capital Region of New York State have affected the spirit, mind and body of people for more than 150 years. The 1990 forming of the Capital District YMCA signified a resurgence of those expected high quality services with the union of its parts in Albany, Glenville, Schenectady, Troy and its camping branch on Lake George.
