* Join us in gleaning at community gardens and local farms to harvest any leftover veggies. This occurs periodically, but we would love to have you on our list of folks to call!
* Come serve at a Nutrition Outreach Mobile Market. This allows you to connect with people and provide food assistance to families in our community. Serving Buncombe and four surrounding counties, there is surely a place for you to serve with us!

Please contact Lisa Riggsbee at [email protected] for more information on getting started with the Nutrition Outreach Programs or questions regarding the market.
WORK OUT AND HELP OUT. When you join the Y, you’re committing to more than simply becoming healthier. You’re supporting the values and programs that strengthen your community. At the Y, children learn what they can achieve, families spend quality time together, and we all build relationships that deepen our sense of belonging.
For more than a workout. For a better us.

The YMCA Piranhas is a year-round YMCA Competitive Swim Team. We are sanctioned by both the YMCA and USA Swimming leagues. This means that Piranha swimmers compete in both YMCA and USA competitions. We believe that being a part of these two leagues gives our swimmers the opportunity to compete at the best level for their abilities.
Our team’s structure is based on the Y’s mission and four core values. We divide into seven different practice groups that are based on age and ability level and are designed by the coaches to help all swimmers to develop and to be challenged, regardless of ability. There is a place for every level of swimmer to be challenged and to flourish.
