Welcome Cathy & Kitch !!
Great news! Our LIVESTRONG at the Y program for cancer survivors has TWO new coaches joining Craig and Sue. Cathy Bussard is a graduate of a 2019 LIVESTRONG at the Y group. Cathy's life was so powerfully impacted by her experience, that she decided to get certfied as a Y of the USA LIVESRONG at the YMCA coach in order to support and inspire other cancer survivors. Cathy and current Y staff, Kitch both went through extensive training during the end of 2019.Craig, Sue and Cathy began working with a new group of twelve cancer survivors this week by welcoming them and assessing their current fitness levels. Over twelve weeks, these coaches will help empower the group to regain strength, balance and coordination. It is our hope that we will be able to offer an evening time slot for a group during 2020. Stay tuned! More info will be shared throughout the year. For now, please continue to help spread the word about this incredible opportunity that is open to all in the community for FREE.
