FORT WAYNE, Ind. (ADAMS) – The YMCA of Greater Fort Wayne celebrated the opening of the 3Rivers FCU Family YMCA with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the facility Thursday in New Haven. The 3Rivers FCU Family Y is the result of an operating and lease agreement at the site of the former New Haven Fitness Center located inside the New Haven Community Center at 7500 State Road 930 East, Fort Wayne, IN 46803.
Andrew Gritzmaker, President and CEO of the YMCA of Greater Fort Wayne said “Expanding into an agreement with the city of New Haven helps us to put the Y’s programming within reach of a wider population. The addition of this facility helps us grow and serve more members while adding an additional location in the heart of a growing community. We thank the staff and board of the Parks and Recreation department for their efforts in making this partnership happen, and 3Rivers Federal Credit Union for their significant financial commitment.”
“The City of New Haven is excited to announce the enhancement of the current New Haven fitness facility at the Community Center,” adds Mayor of New Haven Steven McMichael. “The 3Rivers FCU Family YMCA will be a wonderful addition to the community. This newest partnership with the YMCA right here in New Haven will not only continue to conveniently provide New Haven residents with a quality fitness center, but additional amenities that will enhance the well-being of New Haven residents through a variety of programming for all ages and abilities. This is a great win for New Haven.”

The following was released:
Thanks to a generous donation from 3Rivers Federal Credit Union for naming rights, the new facility is called the 3Rivers FCU Family YMCA.
The Fitness Center was previously operated by the New Haven/Adams Township Parks and Recreation Department, and YMCA membership is required to use the facility. All members of the YMCA of Greater Fort Wayne now have access to the new 3Rivers FCU Family YMCA, which serves as the ninth wellness center within the association.
The YMCA of Greater Fort Wayne is committed to increasing the number of group exercise classes and personal training opportunities offered at the 3Rivers FCU Family YMCA, while also adding additional youth programming, activities for families, and expanding recreational opportunities. Enrollment for a new Summer Day Camp at the 3Rivers FCU Family YMCA is open now for children going into kindergarten through fifth grade.
“With our roots in East Allen County as part of the International Harvester legacy and as we celebrate 90 years of commitment to the communities we serve, 3Rivers is proud to support this investment in New Haven. This partnership with the YMCA reflects our belief in the power of strong, healthy communities,” stated Don Cates, President & CEO of 3Rivers. “Financial wellness and physical wellness go hand in hand, and the 3Rivers FCU Family YMCA will support both by providing resources for individuals and families to thrive.”
