New Y Branding On the Way

The Y logo is changing, but our mission and values are not changing. The Y is about changing lives for the better. We view participation in our programs and services as a means to a greater end. Therefore, through our rebranding effort, we want to help our communities learn more about our work so we can help our communities learn and grow. The new look and the clearer focus help us to spread the message of our mission even further: "To put Christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body for all."

 

By simplifying how we describe our programs, we hope it will be apparent that everything we do is designed to nurture the potential of children and teens (Youth Development), improve health and well-being (Healthy Living) and motivate people to support their neighbors and the larger community (Social Responsibility). Watch for this new logo in the months to come.

• Check out Hydrocycling. It's the hottest new thing in exercise. Whether you cycle or not, or whether you swim or not, it's a great way to get fit and stay cool. Only at the Caine Halter Family Branch..

• It's still time to enroll for Summer Day Camp at the Y. Providing a fun and healthy summer for your children, ages 4-14,  is our specialty. Field trips, arts and crafts, sports and games, swimming and much more are part of the regular line-up at the YMCA summer day camps. Download a brochure and form and make your selections. Teen Camp is summer fun unique to the Y. Don't miss out.

• There are a limited number of weeks available for your child this summer at YMCA Camp Greenville--our amazing 99 year old camp in the beautiful and cool Blue Ridge Mountains. Contact Greg McKee to reserve your space before it's too late.
