🥗 Lunch with Luke! 💪

Our Gymnastics Team recently sat down with Luke, South Shore YMCA's Director of Health & Wellness, for a fun conversation about healthy eating, smart snacks, and fueling their bodies for success.

Now, let's address the elephant in the room...

👀 Did anyone else notice the bag of Doritos sitting right in front of Luke? According to him, they're packed with protein. We're still fact-checking that one. 😆

Jokes aside, one of the best things about the Y is having knowledgeable staff who are always willing to share tips, answer questions, and help members build healthy habits that last a lifetime.

See Luke or any member of our Health & Wellness team around the Y? Stop and say hello. You might leave with a great wellness tip... or a new perspective on Doritos. 💙💚

We recently had the pleasure of welcoming the team from TruNorth Bank to the Hale Family YMCA for a tour and visit. We are grateful for their continued support of the South Shore YMCA and their commitment to strengthening our community. Partnerships like these help us create meaningful impact across the South Shore, and we look forward to continuing our work together.

Pictured in the photo (L-R) are Chris Pesce, Vice President and Community Relations Officer at TruNorth Bank; Sarah Guimaraes, Marketing and Community Relations Administrator at TruNorth Bank; and Jill Donovan, Vice President of Development at the South Shore YMCA.

Thank you, TruNorth Bank, for your partnership and support!
