(MIRROR INDY) — Ransburg YMCA members aren’t giving up on their community center.
After the YMCA of Greater Indianapolis announced in January that Ransburg will close, people started coordinating online. A Facebook group created on Jan. 22 has already attracted nearly 1,700 members. People in the group are sharing memories and long-shot ideas to save the eastside YMCA.
They’re also asking questions. What did the YMCA do to try to save Ransburg? How did the financial situation become enough to force a closure?
And why is it that suburban YMCA locations are apparently able to thrive while Ransburg and other Indianapolis locations close?…
