EXCITING CHANGES - SAME MISSION  | | | It is an exciting time in the YMCA movement! Recently, our national organization, the YMCA of the USA, launched a new branding strategy which includes a new logo and the introduction of three areas of focus: youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility. This new spin on our old favorites allows the YMCA mission "to put Christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body for all" to be clearer and louder than ever before.
Our YMCA plans to roll out the new brand over the course of the next sixteen months; we invite you to share in our excitement as we embrace and begin the changes! |
| IT'S A BRAND NEW DAY! | |
 As a YMCA member, you can help your friends and family to have a fresh start toward their health and well-being by inviting them to join you at the Y! We're waiving the joining fee September 7 - 28.
Active YMCA members have a sharper mind, a more peaceful spirit, greater self-assurance, and a sense of community; all fueled by an overwhelming spirit of belonging. And of course, we've made sure that membership is affordable for everyone regardless of their household income.
Please invite your friends to start fresh today! |
| SHOP, SAVE AND HELP YOUR COMMUNITY | | | KIDZ KONSIGNMENT SALE
