Congratulations to our June Employee of the Month, Royce Duff!
Royce has been a part of the YMCA Childcare family for almost 10 years. It's hard to imagine the program without him. The kids absolutely love seeing him each day, and he always greets everyone with a smile and a positive attitude. Royce goes out of his way to make sure every child feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while riding the bus. He’s dependable, kind, and always willing to lend a hand wherever it's needed. Royce is simply an amazing person to work with, and he truly deserves to be recognized as our June Employee of the Month.

Memory Keepers Fun Fact #4: Familiar songs can do more than sound good — they can help spark connection.

Research shows that music, especially familiar tunes, can help people living with memory loss connect with memories, emotions, and moments of recognition. Even when words become difficult, a well-known song can still bring comfort, joy, and a sense of belonging. The Alzheimer’s Association also notes that music can support self-expression and engagement for people living with Alzheimer’s and dementia.

That is part of what makes Memory Keeper’s Chorus so meaningful.

Water Safety Month Tip #6: Skip breath-holding games.
Breath-holding games may seem harmless, but they can be extremely dangerous. Children can lose consciousness quickly underwater, even when they are strong swimmers.

As Water Safety Month comes to a close, remember that water safety is important every day of the year. At the Y, we believe simple habits, active supervision, and water safety education can help keep kids safer in and around water.
