Dodge for a Cause 2020!
Our annual dodgeball tournament raises funds for our Financial Assistance Program, which makes it possible for anyone in our community to participate in our programming, regardless of financial standing. Our mission is to put Christian principles into place through programs that build healthy spirit, mind, and body for all. You help us support that mission! This Saturday will be a very busy day at the Y, please come prepared, and enjoy some of the excitement too!
Thank you to Copus Orthodontics, Weinlander Fitzhugh Certified Public Accountants, and Garber Group of Saginaw for sponsoring this year's event.

Member of the MonthMaxine Kolat"Well, I've been a member here for 52 years! I always say, if I hadn't been coming here for so long, I probably wouldn't be walking anymore. Coming every day to swim keeps me active, but I've also met so many wonderful people here."

"They say if you do something you love you’ll never work another day of your life. I’m so grateful and blessed to be one of those lucky people that get to say that. I have always loved sports and anything to do with fitness. I love helping people, so this is the perfect fit for me. The Y is such an exceptional organization they really do put others first. It’s not always about what can I get, it’s what can I give! They give so much to this Community and I’m honored to be a part of this Y family."
