🎃👻 A SPOOKTACULAR WEEK WITH OUR CDC STAFF! 🧡

Last week, our Sidney-Shelby County YMCA Child Development Center staff got into the Halloween spirit with a fun-filled Halloween Edition Spirit Week! 🎉

Each day brought a new theme, lots of creativity, and plenty of smiles!

🏈 Monday: Football Team Gear Day – Repping their favorite teams!

🍁 Tuesday: Fall Colors Day – Bringing all the cozy autumn vibes!

👻 Wednesday: Ghost Day – Things got a little spooky!

💤 Thursday: PJ Day – Keeping it comfy!

🎃 Friday: Costume Day – Ending the week with some Halloween fun!

While our CDC team works hard every day caring for, teaching, and inspiring the little ones in our community, it's just as important to make time for laughter, team bonding, and a little FUN!

❤️ We are so grateful for our AMAZING CDC staff! Their dedication, creativity, and positive energy make our Y a special place for children and families. Spirit Week was a great reminder that a team that has fun together makes the workplace even better!

Help us show our incredible CDC staff some love in the comments! 🧡👏

It's Wellness Wednesday!

🧠 GIVE YOUR MIND A BREAK

Wellness isn’t only about strengthening your body—it’s about caring for your mind, too.

Take a few minutes today to slow down. Put away your phone, step outside, stretch, pray, breathe deeply, or simply enjoy a quiet moment.

Even 5–10 minutes of intentional rest can help you reset and refocus.

Remember: Rest is part of wellness, too. 💜

🗳️Election Day at the Y! 🐱🐶🐰

Our little voters were busy at the polls today in Ms. Beth and Ms. Grace’s preschool classes at the Sidney-Shelby County YMCA Child Development Center!

In honor of Election Day, our preschoolers learned about the importance of voting, making fair decisions, and having their voices heard. And what better way to practice than with a very important election… Which pet is the BEST? 🐾

Each child signed in, stepped into the voting booth, and cast their ballot for a cat, dog, or rabbit! After all the votes were in, the children worked together to count the ballots and announce the winner!

🥁 And the results are in…

🐱 CATS — 11 votes! 🏆

🐶 DOGS — 3 votes

🐰 RABBITS — 3 votes

CATS WIN BY A LANDSLIDE! 🎉

What a fun, hands-on way to introduce our youngest learners to voting, decision-making, counting, and the importance of every voice!

❤️💙 Little voters, big lessons!

🎉💙 Please join us in congratulating Emily Butler on her new role as On-Site Administrator at our YMCA Child Development Center at Fair Haven!

Emily's journey with the Y is a special one! She first joined our Child Development Center team in March 2017. After a brief time away, she returned in December 2021 and made the move to our Fair Haven location in January 2024, where she has continued to make a difference in the lives of children and families.

❤️ Here's a fun full-circle moment! Emily actually attended our YMCA Child Development Center as a preschooler, and her teacher was none other than Michele Dotson, who now serves as our Assistant Director! How special is it to see a former Y preschooler grow into a leadership role, helping shape the next generation?

We love seeing the lasting impact of the Y come full circle, and we're excited to see Emily continue to grow in this new role!

👏 Congratulations, Emily! We're grateful to have you as part of our YMCA family!

🎃👻 Little Costumes, BIG Smiles! 🍬🧡

Our Sidney-Shelby County YMCA was filled with some extra cuteness last Friday, October 30th, as the children in our Infant, Toddler, and Preschool programs at our Y Child Development Center went trick-or-treating around the Y! 🎃

From adorable costumes to excited little faces, our kiddos brought plenty of smiles and Halloween fun to the halls of the YMCA!

A BIG thank you to our amazing Y staff and members who joined in the fun by handing out treats, admiring costumes, and making the day extra special for our little trick-or-treaters! 🧡

It's moments like these that make our Y feel like one big family! 💙
