Kids Corner is a wonderful service that we offer for families, so that everyone can enjoy their time at the YMCA. Following our reduction in facility hours during the summer to account for the dip in use, we are also modifying the Kids Corner summer schedule. Due to a significant drop in evening and Saturday morning use, effective July 5 through September 5 our new Kids Corner hours will be:
Monday-Friday, 8-11am
Saturday, 9-11am
Evening hours will resume after Labor Day.

Our Annual Campaign was a huge success, thanks to the generosity of so many individuals and organizations. Thank you so much to everyone that made a contribution. We also appreciate everyone that was willing to kiss a cow to raise funds for the Y. You can still make a donation to support the YMCA's financial assistance program by mailing or dropping off a check made out to the Winona Family YMCA, or donating online through the link below. Many thanks for your generous support! | |
Lots of smiles, giggles and smooches were had at our Kiss the Cow Annual Campaign wrap-up party. Children and adults alike enjoyed frozen custard, which was generously donated by Culver's, as well as other delicious treats. The party was completed with live music performed by some of our talented staff, and games such as "Cow Tipping," Milk jug bowling and Stick the Lips on the Cow. Many cow lovers eagerly donated so they could kiss the cow themselves! | |

Resilience is our ability to get through challenging circumstances, and come out even stronger and wiser on the other side. It is a foundational component of our mental health. Resilience is like a muscle, the more we train it, the stronger it gets. It grows through healthy and supportive relationships, taking care of ourselves and others, and asking for help when we need it. Join our friend Sarah Johnson for the Dinner Table Resilience video series and skills sheets on building resilience. Tips, topics, skills, and strategies that we can use at our own tables to build resilience in ourselves and others.
Thank you to our friends at the La Crosse Family YMCA for allowing us to promote these fantastic videos to our members!
