Teaching children how to be safe around water is not a luxury; it is a necessity. The YMCA’s Safety Around Water program can help you make sure they learn essential water safety skills, which can open up a world of possibilities for them to satisfy their curiosity safely.

Person of the Year Award

The Person of the Year award holds special meaning as it is selected by teens in the Youth in Government program at the Britton YMCA. For 73 years, they have recognized leaders who embody the Y’s core values. Through a thoughtful process, they evaluate candidates based on service, community impact, and dedication to youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility.
