YMCA Safe Place Services Turf Classic

The YMCA Safe Place Services Turf Classic celebrates the long-standing partnership between YMCA Safe Place Services and the Louisville Fire Department (LFD), which dates back to 1983. Louisville’s fire stations were among the first Safe Place sites in the country. For decades, local youth have visited area fire stations to access the help and services they need through YMCA Safe Place Services.
