Executive Director Corner

Wow!  I can’t believe it’s already fall!  With fall comes football, leaves changing (if you’re lucky) and the holidays.  The holidays can be a tough time for some families in need.  Consider the many blessings you and your family have.  Now, think for a moment about the families that may not have the same blessings.

This is an ideal time to give back to the community.  Consider food drives, adopting a family, sending holiday packages to our soldiers serving our country overseas.  Some families have lost loved ones through the year, or have hit hard times.  It may just be the generosity of a YMCA member that brightens someone’s holiday, which may otherwise be a sad and lonely time.

There are many opportunities to give back.  If you would like to participate in a community service project, but don’t know what to do, give us a call.  We can share some of ours!  Enjoy your football games, play in the leaves (if you have any!) and have a safe, happy and healthy holiday season- from all of us at the YMCA
