A big thank you to Ken Soliday, Director of Alliance Services at the PA State Alliance of YMCAs, for spending time with us at the Arthur J. Glatfelter YMCA to lead a Fiscal Management training session.

We were excited to welcome directors from across YMCA of the Roses, along with leaders from neighboring YMCA associations, for this valuable learning opportunity. Ken brought a wealth of knowledge, practical insight, and encouragement to the discussion, making the training both engaging and impactful.

We are grateful for the opportunity to learn from such a great coach and leader. Thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to a fantastic day of professional development and collaboration.

Together, we continue to strengthen our Ys and better serve our communities.
