IMPACT MAGAZINE

Have you received your copy of IMPACT, the Y's new magazine?  You probably received one in the mail recently and we hope you will hang onto it because, in the middle of the magazine, you'll find a pull-out Program Catalog that lists the descriptions and locations of all spring and summer Y programs. Use the Program Catalog together with the Program Schedules that you'll find online on our branch website or, simply 

click on this link.  The Program Schedules list all the program specifics like: dates, times, ages, locations, and registration.

 

Do you have a wonderful Y story about how the Y has had an impact in your life? Do you want your story to be featured in IMPACT? Email letters@peninsulaymca.org , include your name, contact information and tell us your story. IMPACT will be published three times a year.
