This service, while administered by the YMCA of Greater Michiana, will be provided on St. Anthony's campus and will only be available to St. Anthony students. The administrators of the YMCA of Greater Michiana Y-Club program are committed to partnering with our administration to ensure expected behaviors and values are aligned. -
