In December o 2004, the YMCA o Columbia-Willamette announced plans to closeNortheast acility ater 80 years o service to the community. This brought orth an

outpouring o support or the cherished institution that resulted in the ormationo the not-or-prot Northeast Community Center (NECC). On February 1, 2005 the

Northeast Community Center took over the building and has carried on its longtimehealth and tness heritage ever since.
