MAKE YOUR MILES MATTER

When we come together as a Y community, we create opportunity. Every $1,000 raised sends five kids to camp this summer. Your miles matter and so does your support. Consider raising funds or making a donation to help us open the doors of camp to more children who need it most.

Engaging kids in a martial arts practice can help to improve their confidence, mental wellbeing, and physical fitness!  Led by Master Andrew Jefferson, this all-levels class teaches Tae Kwon Do fundamentals in a structured but encouraging environment.
