Dear Members!

I hope you were able to attend our traditional summer ending event, the YMCA’s Parking Lot Party which is open to our members and our community; over 300 people attended.They were treated to some great food, ice cream and games. Performances by the “Cheyenne Gun Slingers”, and a band named “Another Kind of Magick” a teen-age Blues band playing exceptional for their age! Demonstrations for Hoop dancing and Karate rounded out a great summer’s eve.

On October 1st we formally and offi cially unveiled our new logo, a re-branding initiated by the YMCA of the USA as we talked about in last CEO Notes. (More on the re-branding on page 13) The unveiling occurred at our fi rst Membership Appreciation Party under our new logo. Dinner was Pulled Pork sandwiches with all the fi xings from a hog donated by Mr. Maurice Brown for the occasion.Over 290 dinners were served at this “Members Only” event. Folks chatted while listening to our favorite Y band “Another Kind of Magick”.Special thanks go to Mr. Brown, Ed Carleo for his technical assistance, Chris Shay and all of our staff who helped out with this great event. Next year rumor is that I am trying to get Maryland Blue crabs sent in.

Tackle and Flag football got under way with rousing success. There are 8 teams of 5th & 6th graders and 5 teams of 3rd & 4th graders playing tackle football, while in Flag Football there are 6 teams of 3&4 year olds, 6 teams of 5&6 year olds, 6 teams of 7&8 year olds and 2 teams in the 9&10 year olds division. A total of 458 football players! Thank you to all of our Volunteer Coaches.

There are some great programs in this guide, so please consider them all for your family. We continue to increase our youth fi tness offerings. Keep an eye out for some exciting changes as we continue to re-invent ourselves for the community of Cheyenne.

Our newest member of our YMCA staff is Linda Schamaun our Corporate Member Services Director, Linda works with businesses and companies in the area to enhance and recruit memberships. If you know of a business; maybe your own or who you work for steer them Linda’s way [email protected] or 634-9622.

Remember there is strength in numbers, so please refer folks to be members of the Y and we will work on getting new equipment pieces to keep you challenged! Sign up for “Get Started” a members only program to help you on your way to fi tness. Folks you refer that aren’t members tell them to mention our “First Step” program they can use the Y for a month as long as they complete our orientation and stay in a class for a month!

The Cheyenne Family YMCA; For Youth Development, For Healthy Living, For Social Responsibility.

A BRANDNEW DAYYou may have noticed that the Y is changing the way we present ourselves. For the fi rst time in 43 years, we are unveiling a new brand strategy. The new strategy is designed to increase understanding of the impact we are making in the community, so that more people can take advantage of our unique capacity to foster lasting personal and social change.

Our community has needs, and the Y remains a central means to meeting them. We’ve always known that positive change only comes about when we invest in our kids, our health and our neighbors. And that’s why we’re here. We have three areas of focus:

Youth Development, because young people need caring adults to provide support, • guidance and encouragement as they grow.

Healthy Living, because wellness in spirit, mind and body strengthens our very being,• and enhances our interactions with others.•

Social Responsibility, because we truly are in this together, and together we can harness • our individual strengths and bring about positive change around us.

So while we’ve changed our appearance to better refl ect the work we do and the positive impact we make, we’re still supporting Cheyenne in the same way we always have.

Thank you for being a valued member of the Y. We look forward to continuing to meet the needs of the people and families in Cheyenne and, with your support, we will work to enrich more lives and more families, and strengthen the community around us for decades to come.

As always, we welcome your input. We invite you to share your thoughts with us.
