Program --Tri-Cities Family YMCA, Greg Coil
 
$10 million Capital Campaign is underway. Greg showed the Y's campaign video, featuring members, staff, Greg, and others. The campaign has three primary goals: expand child care, strengthen  health and wellness options, and improve infrastructure. 
 
Greg also gave a more detailed Campaign presentation. Highlights: 3,000 kids in lessons, classes and leagues. Serves over 10,000 people a year, half of which are under 18. The Y has recently partnered with Community Mental Health. In 2023, the Y served 22,000 meals and snacks. All seventh graders receive a free membership. 
 
Project Focus Areas: invest in early childhood learning, invest in multi-generational wellness, sustain the infrastructure. All areas will be improved and impacted. Adding a new program space, upgrading locker room access and increasing accessibility. The goal is $10 million, and current funding is at just under $6.5 million. There are a wide range of naming opportunities; interested persons can contact Greg. 
 
Campaign leaders Erick and Holly Johnson, Jeff Beswick, David Redeker, supported by a Cabinet of 30+ individuals. 
 
Public launch of campaign is on May 29, 10:00 -11:00 am at the Y. Our Rotary group is supporting the campaign through the 2024 Jeep Raffle.
