It's Thriving Thursday! Did you know that games like Bridge do more than provide a fun way to spend an afternoon or evening? Bridge challenges memory, strategy, problem-solving, and communication skills while creating meaningful social connections along the way, and we've got lots of opportunities for you to play!

Join us every Tuesday from 11:30 - 2:30 pm in Generational Room B for Bridge Club. Interested in learning the game? We’ve added an extra Beginner Bridge class this month.

Monday, June 22nd
5:00–7:00 PM
Generational Room B

Whether you’re brand new to Bridge and eager to learn or an experienced player looking for friendly competition, the YMCA is a great place to play, connect, and grow your skills!

It’s Movement Monday!! Did you know that Martial Arts classes are back? Abbey Wightman will get you moving as she instructs Takeo-Do on Wednesday nights and Saturday mornings. Takeo-Do “The way of the Valiant Warrior “ is a practical self-defense martial art built around high-percentage techniques designed to work in real-world situations. Rather than focusing on sport competition, students learn effective movement, control, awareness, and defense skills that can be applied under pressure and adapted to everyday life. This is a fee-based program. For more information or to sign up, visit the Welcome Center. Let’s Move Together!

Driving Impact Across KC Communities. ⛳️

A huge thank you to Freedom Custom Carts for stepping up for the second year in a row to support the YMCA of Greater Kansas City Annual Campaign.

Through their generous partnership, Freedom Custom Carts provided golf carts at cost to the Platte County YMCAs and Olathe YMCA, helping power fundraising raffles connected to our annual golf tournaments. Over the past two years, their support has amounted to more than $15,000 in impact.

Every ticket sold helps strengthen programs, access, and opportunities for kids, families, and neighbors across our community.
