JULY 2025
AT THE MID-WILLAMETTE FAMILY YMCA IN
Happy July from the Mid-Willamette Family YMCA! June was a busy month at the Y. From end-of-the-year field trips to senior all-night parties, our facility was full of energy and activity.
One of the highlights was our annual Learn to Swim Week, where we welcomed 250 kids for free swim lessons. This program is designed for kids in our community with little to no swimming experience. We are proud to offer this free program to our community, helping kids build skills, confidence, and a lifelong love of the water. June Recap Page 1-2
