History
The South Side YMCA was called the German Branch from 1879 to 1908 and operated from several locations before the present building on Grand was constructed in 1936 from funds raised in the 1924 capital campaign. The national YMCA Indian Guides program originated at the South Side YMCA in 1926.

In 1990, the Carondelet and South Side YMCAs boards of managers and director-level staff were merged and then referred to as the South City YMCA.

As a result of the Vision 2000 Capital Development Program, the new 48,000 square foot South City Family YMCA on Sublette opened its doors on December 9, 2000.
