      <marmot:placeNotes>The YMCA building was a three-story building located between White Avenue and Rood Avenue on 5th Street in Grand Junction.  In addition to a swimming pool in the basement, a bowling alley and a gymnasium, it had rooms on the second and third floors that single men often rented. Its construction was funded largely by William Moyer. Building costs were also funded by Orlo Williams, a board member, who held an annual fund drive during this period.&#xD;
&#xD;
The gym often hosted community classes put on by the WPA during the Depression. The Grand Junction Junior College held classes in the gym. The YMCA had a youth club called the Pioneer Club, which was like the Boy Scouts but emphasized hiking. The YMCA also hosted a youth camp on the Grand Mesa, and owned a camp facility there that was maintained by the Wisemen's Club, an associated service organization.&#xD;
&#xD;
Eventually, after an awning was torn off of the building, resulting in a death, the building was closed and torn down.</marmot:placeNotes>
