Fatigue is one of the most common reasons people visit their primary care doctor — and one of the hardest to self-diagnose, because the causes overlap so much. The key question isn't how tired you are, but whether rest actually helps. Tiredness that improves after a good night's sleep usually points to a sleep or lifestyle issue. Fatigue that persists despite rest — or that's been dragging for weeks — is more likely a signal worth investigating with your doctor.

Last week, we welcomed children to our branch for a special Safety Around Water event supported by Reliant Energy ®.

Through our Safety Around Water program, children learn essential swimming and water safety skills that help build confidence and keep them safe in and around the water. From floating and basic swim techniques to important safety practices, these lessons can make a life-saving difference.

A special thank you to Reliant Energy® for helping make water safety education more accessible to children and families in our community.

We're proud to be a place where kids can learn, grow, and gain skills that last a lifetime.

With the weather warming up, we know you're going to heading to the pools, lakes, or ocean this summer! We want you to be able to enjoy and have fun, but we have six water safety tips that will help you keep you and your child safe:

1️⃣ Make sure children know to always ask permission before going in or near the water.
2️⃣ Never swim alone without a Water Watcher.
3️⃣ Supervise your children whenever they’re in or near water.
4️⃣ Don’t engage in breath-holding activities.
5️⃣ Inexperienced or non-swimmers should wear a Coast Guard-approved life jacket.
6️⃣ Don’t jump in the water to save a friend who is struggling in deep water.

Our community garden is growing thanks to the power of service, partnership, and community spirit! 🌱💚

We are so grateful to the women of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.® Alpha Beta Phi Omega Chapter for volunteering their time and energy at the Grand Prairie Family YMCA community garden. Together with our Youth Leadership Institute students and Executive Director Daniel Edwards, volunteers worked hard pulling weeds, adding fresh soil and fertilizer, and watering the garden to help it continue to thrive.

This garden is more than just a place to grow vegetables and flowers — it’s a space where leadership, teamwork, and community connections bloom. Seeing youth and community leaders work side by side reminds us of the incredible impact we can make when we come together in service.

Thank you to everyone who continues to support and care for our community garden. Your dedication helps create a healthier, stronger, and more connected Grand Prairie community! 🌼🌿
