Halloween week was nothing short of magical at the YWCO! From spooky workouts to festive fun, our incredible fitness instructors went above and beyond to make the week extra special for our members. We are so thankful for the creativity, energy, and excitement they bring to our YWCO community!
And to all of our members who dressed up, joined in, danced, laughed, and celebrated alongside us — thank you for making this time of year even more magical. You are what makes our YWCO community so special!

Until next Halloween… keep it spooky!

🎃🏆 AND THE 2026 YWCO PUMPKIN CONTEST WINNER IS… MAINTENANCE & JANITORIAL! 🏆🎃

The votes are in, and Maintenance & Janitorial have officially claimed the crown (and bragging rights) as this year’s pumpkin champions! Congratulations! 👏

Aquatics came in HOT with a very close second-place finish, but unfortunately, the votes just weren’t flowing their way this time. 😂

Carmen would like everyone to know that Aquatics will ALWAYS be first place in her heart… even if the scoreboard says otherwise. ❤️😂

A huge thank-you to everyone who participated, voted, and brought their pumpkin creativity to the table. Until next year… may the best pumpkin win! 🎃
