This month's member spotlight is Lambert Rome!

Lambert has been a member of the Charles W. Lamar Jr. YMCA for about a year and a half. He enjoys lifting weights at the Y and is motivated by fellow members who work out at the same time as they have become friends and have encouraged him to keep pushing to reach his goals.

Lambert says the Y was not the first gym he joined but since switching, it has become a huge part of his success. When he started at the Y, his routine was greatly improved helping him to lose weight and improve his overall health. He has been able to overcome previous health conditions and the Y was his go-to rehab after his knee replacement.

Lambert says that anytime he can't visit the Y (which isn't often) he feels like a part of his day is missing.

We are happy to have Lambert as a Y member and congratulate him on his many successes on his journey to become healthier!

This month's employee spotlight is Cherry Malveaux!

Cherry is a senior aerobics instructor, and she enjoys teaching body sculpting on Mondays at 8am and 9am. She has been at the Y since 2014. Prior to employment with the Y, Cherry attended several fitness classes at the Y including Zumba, the walk group, step aerobics and circuit training, and water aerobics.

She retired as an educator from the East Baton Rouge School System and then decided to apply for employment with the Y to make a difference in the community, to work for a cause, and to be a part of a great team.

Cherry was hired as a front desk attendant. Later, she became a leader of the Happy Feet Walking Group. A co-worker then encouraged her to get certified as a fitness instructor. Cherry says that thanks to this coworker, she found her happy place in the gym of the YMCA.

Cherry says, "My motto is to be young at heart staying alive using the drive inside me, with old school music to thrive. I give God all the glory for His grace and mercy."
