WE ARE NOW OPEN!!!

The Early Learning Center (ELC) for infants to pre-K. First, though, the Y invites the community to our Classroom Shower to provide finishing touches for each room at the ELC. Attendees can contribute toys and décor to each classroom from the Y’s wishlist by purchasing gift cards to the Y’s educational supplier. They’ll also get a first look at the finished floor plans for each classroom. Hors d’oeuvres and light refreshments will be served.

⭐ FEATURE FRIDAY SPOTLIGHT ⭐

This week we’re celebrating Jacob Sohm from our Aquatics team! 🌊👏

Jacob has been with the YMCA for 3 months and has already made such a positive impact as one of our lifeguards. His favorite part about working at the Y is seeing everyone’s smiling faces as they come to swim and enjoy our facilities!

Outside of work, Jacob stays active with sports, including swim team, track, baseball, and wrestling. He also shared that he can juggle — and even showed off his talent in his high school male handsome pageant! 👏

Thank you, Jacob, for helping make the YMCA a safe, welcoming, and fun place for our members every day! 💙

A huge thank you to Valerie Hardy with VCAD for partnering with us and supporting our staff training here at the Osage Prairie YMCA! As well as Richard Brockman, Parks and Rec Director, for letting us use their full weight, water manikin.
We are grateful for the opportunity to use the full-weight manikin during our training sessions, allowing our team to practice real-life emergency response skills in a hands-on environment.
