Early Childhood Education - ECE is one of the staples of the modern YMCA. Although this program is a sizeable portion of our revenue, it concurrently is the largest component of our expenses, too - especially SBT. With all ratio based care, the more participants you can put into a room, the better. With ECE, the ratios of care for "staff:children" are Infant 2:8, Older Infant 2:9, Toddler 2:10, Preschool 2:14, and PreK 2:20. To help offset revenue loss in the Infant through Toddler rooms, our strategy has been to partner with other organizations to provide services at locations other than the YMCA. This strategy has worked successfully at Temple Shalom, a Jewish Synagogue, and we are looking forward to opening a new center in Rumford in 2025.

Fitness and Wellness - Fitness and Wellness programming at the YMCA of Auburn-Lewiston is mostly accomplished through membership subscription to the Y's three (3) local fitness centers: Y@Turner Street in Auburn, Y@CMMC in Lewiston, and Y@HCS in Lewiston. While yoga, group exercise, cycling classes and other programs are included in membership benefits, there are also premium programs that are fee-for-service, such as personal training, nutrition counseling, and chronic condition coaching to name a few. With the purchase of the Health Club and Spa, Fitness & Membership also includes aquatics programming, such as free swim, classes, and use of hot tub and sauna.

Youth Development - Youth Development has three major components: Before and After School, Y Day & Kids Camp, and Youth Sports. All of these components serve kiddos in the primary age range of 5 to 12 years old, but youth sports, such as swimming and gymnastics, may include youth up to 18 years old. When appropriate, transportation to and from school or camp is provided by the YMCA. The unique part of youth development programming is none of the three components goes year around. This makes them complimentary in a sense yet require extra staffing during programming because of the difficulty of finding staff who have all the required skills, abilities, knowledge, and experience. Due to growth potential and community needs in these areas, we will launch a capital campaign to do major renovations to the Y's Outdoor Learning and Education Center in 2024/2025.
