Step back in time to the roaring 1920s, where fedoras, feathers, and family secrets rule the night! This year, the Valparaiso Family YMCA is hosting YBash 2026: A Mafia Marriage Murder Mystery, our signature fundraising gala – and we want you to be part of the action.

Join us on February 28th at the Blue Chip Casino in Michigan City for a night of suspense, style, and community spirit. Proceeds from this event will directly support the Y’s Annual Campaign, which ensures that everyone – regardless of age, income, or background – has the opportunity to thrive. Funds raised provide income-based memberships, childcare scholarships, and life-changing programs like LIVESTRONG at the Y, Rock Steady Boxing, and inclusive recreation for children with special needs.

Thank you for your generosity, your community spirit, and your willingness to play a part in a night of glitz, giving, and gangster-style drama. We can’t wait to see what you bring to the table – just watch your back at the wedding….

Interested in sponsoring the event??? Reach out to Wende Burbridge for more details at 219-462-4185 ext 351 or wburbridge@valpoymca.org.
