Dunham has provided mechanical and electrical engineering services on over ten different YMCAs over the past 15 years. Recently we have completed a new facility in St. Cloud, Minnesota. We have spotlighted a few recent YMCA Community Center projects below:

This project features a new YMCA facility attached to an existing high school. The community center includes an aquatics center, fitness center, walking track, physical therapy, child care, locker rooms, meeting rooms, youth area, multi-purpose recreation space, and a full kitchen. Mechanical, electrical, and energy modeling services were provided for this project.
