WHITE ROCK YMCA

Spring Program Guide

February 1-May 31, 2015

www.WhiteRockYMCA.org

WE’RE MORE

THAN A GYM.

The WHITE ROCK YMCA began offering

Day Camp, Educational Classes, and

Youth Programming back in 1955 and

has continued to be an important part

of the community. Today our

programs consist of activities for all

ages; from infants to youth and teens

to senior. The WHITE ROCK YMCA has

been impacting lives for years and I know we will

continue to do so for many more.

The YMCA is so much more than a place to work out,

with programs designed to enhance the Father/Child

relationship, or youth sports where kids learn

fundamentals and teamwork to teaching hundreds of

children how to swim, we are an integral part of the

community.

With the assistance of 50+ volunteers and hundreds of

members of our community, we hope to surpass our goal

of raising $200,000 for our Annual Campaign this year.

We use these funds to make sure that no one is turned

away due to inability to pay. This important promise is

only one of the many things that separate the Y from

other gym and swim facilities.

If you are thinking about joining the WHITE ROCK YMCA,

stop by our Welcome Center desk and ask for a free 7

day guest pass for yourself or a friend. We would love

to have you try one of our group exercise classes or use

any of our exercise equipment and see how the

YMCA can benefit you. Amenities include 80+ group

exercise classes a week, complimentary child watch,

numerous weight and cardio machines, and our

swimming pool! When you decide to join, we will have

you meet with one of our Wellness Coaches to make

sure you are on track to achieve your personal goals.

I hope you will take a few minutes to look through our

program guide and see all that the WHITE ROCK Y has

to offer. Welcome to our YMCA family!

Annual Scholarship Campaign

Each year, dozens of WHITE ROCK YMCA

volunteers come together to raise funds to

that scholarships and income based

memberships are available to everyone in

our community. This year is no different,

with the support of our members and our

community we hope to raise $200,000 for

this worthy cause.

Everything dollar raised is then made

available so that children and families in

our community who otherwise would not

be able to afford participation in the Y are

allowed the same opportunities to get

healthy, play a sport, or learn to swim that

more fortunate families have.

Whether you are able to donate $1 per

month or $1,000 per month, we ask you to

please look into your hearts and give a

personally significant gift. Unable to

donate, but still want to help? Please

consider volunteering as a campaigner, be

our “boots on the ground” and help us as

we do our best to help others.

All donations from families, businesses,

sports teams, Adventure Guides Circles, or

any other group of $1,000 or more will be

prominently recognized throughout our

new YMCA.

If you or someone you know is interested

in donating or volunteering, please reach
