On Tuesdays, we wear pink 💗

A big THANK YOU to our amazing staff and members who rocked their best pink for Pink Out Day in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month this past week! To all the survivors and their families, thank you for your continued strength and persistence in this fight. We wear pink for you, and all those we have lost. 🎀

We’re incredibly grateful for a community that continues to show up and support one another. 💕

Meet former High Street Membership Director Caitlin Ellis! If you've been around our locations for a while, you've probably seen her beaming smile and greeting nearly everyone she meets. 🤗

She spoke with us about her experience with the High Street YMCA, where she wore (and continues to wear) many hats, including lifeguard and aquatics director.

As we begin to say our goodbyes to the High Street YMCA, we spoke to some longtime members, staff, and volunteers to look back on 64 years of impact 🫶

Meet Dorothy VanMeter, a member-turned-board member who did not grow up as a Y kid, but found her community here around 16 years ago.

What makes the Y so special?

For Prevention Park member Michael E., it's our diversity in programs and other offerings that appeal to so many. At the Y, we take "for all" pretty seriously! Thanks for the kind words Michael!

We’re grateful for partners who don’t just support the Y, but who show up for the community alongside us. UK Credit Union is one of those partners. 🙌 😸

For the second year, UK Credit Union is stepping up as the presenting sponsor of Trunk or Treat (Oct. 31, Whitaker Family YMCA), helping make this fun, family-friendly tradition possible for our Y community.

And you can catch them this year at the Senior Health & Resource Fair on Thursday, Oct. 8 at the North Lexington Family YMCA. Here, they'll connect with older adults about resources, information and opportunities to live healthy, active lives.

Thank you, UK Credit Union, for showing up, investing in the Y and helping us build a stronger, healthier community together. 🤝
