It was a pleasure hosting Governor Josh Shapiro at the Homewood-Brushton YMCA and showing him the amazing programs that are offered! He was able to see the YCS Rooms, the Day Camp Program, the YMCA Lighthouse Project, and the Digital Inclusion lab.

The campers had fun singing an early Happy Birthday to him, showing off the Boom Chicka Boom song, and playing a round of knockout!

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro made a stop this week at the Y in Pittsburgh's Homewood neighborhood to praise after-school and summer programs. KDKA-TV's Jon Delano has more.
