 "Exercising may be one of the best things you can do for yourself during and after your cancer treatment," claims Lance Armstrong.
The Richmond County YMCA is proud to announce the start of a free 8-week program, "Strength Over Cancer," beginning July 11. This program is for any person currently undergoing cancer treatments or has recently completed cancer treatments. All you need is a doctor's referral and each participant receives an 8-week membership to the YMCA along with a detailed exercise program for the 8 weeks.
Participants will make an appointment with the YMCA Health & Wellness Director and be taken through an orientation of all cardio and strength equipment. Call Barbie at the Y for more information.
