BATESVILLE, IN — Angie Harmeyer is stepping down as Southeastern Indiana YMCA Chief Executive Officer, effective October 1.
Harmeyer has been with the Y for 21 years, including the past 11 as its CEO.
“I have had the honor and pleasure of serving the YMCA for the past 21 years, first as the Child Care Director for 10 years followed most recently by my 11 years as the Chief Executive Officer,” Harmeyer said. “It’s amazing to think of what has transpired at the Y in those 21 years including strengthening our senior adults through the SilverSneakers® program, 24-hour access made available in our exercise space, the amazing addition of our Outdoor Community Sports Complex, the privilege of caring for our community’s youth through our nationally accredited and state-licensed child care center, our recent renovations of the YMCA Learning Center, as well as our inaugural Youth Service Award coming up in August.
“Please be assured the Y is strong and will always remain a special place in my heart,” Harmeyer added. “It is an organization that is truly transforming lives, with a team of staff who care about each and every person who enters our doors.”
YMCA Board President Eric Benz thanked Harmeyer for her years of service to the organization, and for her leadership as CEO.
“Angie has moved our YMCA forward in so many ways. Because of her guidance, we have increasingly given back to the community year after year. We have also completed several exciting enhancements to our facility with more in progress. Our YMCA is a remarkable asset to the community we can all be proud of,” Benz said.
“Angie leaves us in an excellent position as we move into the next phase of leadership. We will work closely with Angie over the next several months to prepare for a transition. We are so grateful for Angie’s service, and we wish her the most success in her next role,” added Benz.
The Y Board of Directors has started a search to find Harmeyer’s successor.
