WELCOME TO THE MOUNT DESERT ISLAND YMCA
Welcome to the MDI YMCA! The current MDI YMCA building was built in 1999 and features 45,000 square feet of space. The communities around the island worked hard to help raise funds for the new building when the old building, on the corner of School Street and Mount Desert Street, suffered a collapsed roof.
