🏫 BOARD RETREAT | Back to Work! 💙
As the back-to-school season begins, the Plano YMCA Board is back to work! Staff and board members kicked off the new year by reconnecting with our mission, strengthening relationships, and preparing for an impactful year ahead.
A special thank-you to Sharita Butler, Board Chair, for welcoming our team, and to Officer Bianez for hosting us at Plano Police Headquarters, sharing about the Plano Citizens Academy and his Tai Chi program, and giving us a tour! 👮♂️
Jenny Federici, Chief Brand Officer, also shared Association updates and exciting details about upcoming events, including the Key Leaders Lunch, Turkey Trot, and YMCA NAYDO Conference.
Our committees then got to work planning for the 2027 Annual Campaign and upcoming community engagement opportunities—including our new fall signature event, the Teacher Appreciation Breakfast in October. This special event will celebrate and support educators with a panel discussion featuring mental health professionals. 🍎
We’re energized, inspired, and ready for a great year of strengthening our community together! 💙
