The Grandview Family YMCA Summer Programs Impact Many Children

Many of us that pass the Grandview Family YMCA each day may not realize the number of children throughout the river region their summer programs serve. YMCA Director Bill Myers shared some statics and  they are very impressive.

Summer Programs offered at the Y each year include activities such as swimming, horseback riding, canoeing, games and various other group activities.  During this year’s Summer Programs the Y served 910 different children with 46% of them being from Elmore County and the balance from across the river region area.  This past summer, the YMCA averaged over 500 children daily!

We are blessed to have the Grandview Family YMCA in our community led by Bill Myers and his great staff. The Y also has many scheduled activities for adults as well so if you’re not familiar with their programs check out what they have to offer.
