Welcome to www.ymcaretiree.org.   We are proud to have been the
first website created and maintained for and by YMCA Great Lakes
Region Retirees.  We are all volunteers.

The Brandenburg Chapter (1982) covers Wisconsin and
the Messer Chapter (1931) serves Illinois.  
The Hoosier-Buell Chapter ((1999) was formed by the
merger of the Lincoln E. Buell Chapter (1939)
and the Hoosier Chapter (1959).
The Chambers Chapter (1963) covers Ohio and West Virginia

We are pround of our extended membership and enjoy
our meetings throughout the year.  
All YMCA retirees and those preparing for retirement
are welcome to join in our fellowship.

Hoosier-Buell was the pace setting sponsor of the  2004 Midwest Reunion.  
The Brandenburg and Messer Chapters were proud to sponsor the 2006
Midwest Reunion.
