STRONG KIDS
CAMPAIGN
With your help, no person will be denied the benefits of a YMCA membership based on financial limitations. Through the YMCA Strong Kids Campaign, people just like you come together to make their community stronger. Donations to the Strong Kids Campaign allow the YMCA to provide membership and program assistance to kids and families who might not otherwise be able to afford to pay for YMCA services.
EMPLOYEE OF THE
FIRST QUARTER:
ANTIONE McGRAW
We don’t think you’ll find a more enjoyable employee to be around than Antione McGraw! He is so positive and generous with his time. Antione brings a smile to others faces and he is willing to help out in any department at any time. He has had great ideas that we have implemented in the Wellness Center. Antione has really taken ownership of the Wellness Center. He has implemented some of his ideas for layout of weight room which has made the flow better. Antione made the transition of ActivTrax happen and has trained our staff on it. Antione has a bright future here at the Y!

BOYS INTERSTATE TOURNAMENT THANK YOU
This year we were privileged to have over 140 teams participate, which is encouraging as the tournament continues to grow in numbers. A tournament of this size is great for the community of Aberdeen and is possible only because many of you gave of your time and talents to help with the many areas needed/required to make it successful.
KIDZ DANCE PARTY
In April, the YMCA offered a new class for children called “Kidz Dance Party”. It is dancing mixed with some aerobics and a good physical activity for the kids to participate in. They dance to all the new kids bop music including: Cha-Cha Slide, Cupid Shuffle, Some Nights, and many more.
