So I accidentally deleted my last posting... sorry about that. I'm mad - it was a good one!
I mentioned that our YMCA is making some significant changes to our membership and programming and today is the day it all goes down! Our staff has been working on these changes for the better part of a year wondering asking themselves... how can the YMCA address the health and obesity challenges facing our community? Children are overweight, they grow into overweight adults and struggle with sedentary diseases. Teasing, bullying, low self esteem affect quality of life. Facility access, cost, leisure time all factor into a famili's decision to be active. We know all this - there are a zillion studies that confirm what we see all around us!
Some of our changes will be adult memberships including youth at no additional cost, annual childminding flat fee, rates for Adults 55+ have been reduced (as has the minimum age) and tons more programming.
Our recreation staff has great programs and activities planned - there is no excuse Prince George! Come down and see what is going at the Family YMCA! Talk to the staff, read the brochure - it comes with a free tour!
