My Y Week

My Y Week is a celebration of YMCA membership and our impact on our community. Throughout the week, all YMCA of Rock River Valley branches will host engaging activities for members and staff. 

On July 10, we kick off My Y Week, a week dedicated to membership appreciation and raising awareness of how the Y impacts our community through charitable funds. During My Y Week we will be hosting a variety of campaign activities at the Y. Every dollar donated to the YMCA of Rock River Valley stays local and has a lasting impact on our community.

$1 - 10 jumping jacks
$5 - 15 squats or jump squats 
$10 - 1 min plank hold
$15 - 15 push ups
