From the Desk of the President
A sincere thank you for contributing towards the
Rotary Sponsored YMCA teams
The YMCA is enjoying another successful year of baseball & softball. Children from all areas are having a wonderful time learning fundamentals and values necessary for a healthy childhood. If it were not for sponsors like Rotary, who care for our community and our youth, a program could never come together.
The Thomasville YMCA Staff thank you for your support.
Awesome Event-Thank you Marta Turner
