Please join us in recognizing Jeff Bass, 2011 Coach of the Year, for donating 124 volunteer hours to the Mathews Family YMCA. Jeff has helped with every soccer season (indoor, spring and fall) as well as the summer soccer camp and summer pre-school sports program.  We are so fortunate to have such dedicated volunteers as Jeff who give their time and talent to ensure the success of the Y's programs.  Thank you, Jeff! 
FESTIVAL OF CAROLS

HOLIDAY WORKOUTS

Twelve Days Of Fitness

All that holiday food is so tempting! But it's easier to battle the holiday bulge when you exercise regularly.

Workout at least 12 days between November 21 and December 17-that's only three days per week-and your name will be entered into a drawing for a great YMCA prize package (including a free one

month membership!)

 

Healthy Living Winter Retreat

Begin the day practicing yoga in a spectacular indoor studio that opens onto large oak trees and the East River.  After a brief intermission and walk around the grounds, tone your core and bring balance to your spine with an uplifting Pilates mat class.  A nourishing lunch will be served and the day will close with some restorative yoga postures.

 

Day/Time: Saturday, December 17, 9am-2pm

Location: 409 Sandberg Lane, Cardinal

Fee: Members:  $8, Non-Members:  $14

Registration deadline is December 14
