YMCA Athlone still stands

Today we spoke to James Benjamin who is the Manager of Young Mens Christian Association (YMCA) in Athlone. According to Benjamin the Athlone YMCA has always been a busy, and welcoming place for kids, and is dedicated to the spiritual, social, intellectual and physical improvement of boys and young men and later to women.
Being situated right in the center of where families were forced to live as a result of the Group Areas Act and subsequent forced removals, the Athlone YMCA finds itself in a strategic position to continue its work against the effectrs of the poor socio economic condition that exists because of apartheid.
