About This Cause
The Midland YMCA began in 1953 with 1,162 charter members. A temporary board with George H.W. Bush as Chairman set out to raise the funds needed to start the organization. In September 1953, the first elected Board was installed with Curt Inman serving as chairman. These Midlanders were committed to providing adequate recreational and social facilities for the families who had been brought here to work in various phases of the oil industry. Programs began with a bicycle club for boys and girls and a men's volleyball class that met in the school gym. Today, in addition to the Central YMCA facility, the YMCA of Midland operates a fully staffed preschool Child Development Center and utilizes Lamar Elementary as an after-school hub for surrounding schools. The need for childcare is growing and in order for us to provide the best care, we have expanded our space at the main Y and we are strengthening our relationships with surrounding schools to help assist with the need.
