 As
our Christmas gift to the community, the Garden City Family
YMCA awards deserving students a FREE Youth Membership
through our “Keeping Our Promise” program. This program was
launched with one student in December of 2000 at Victor
Ornelas Elementary School and has increased every year. In
2006, we awarded every school at the elementary level,
Bernandine Sitts Intermediate Center, Charles Stones
Intermediate Center, St. Mary's, St. Dominic's, and the
elementary schools in Holcomb with two memberships.
This program originated through our Heritage Club (YMCA
Endowment) to recognize special youth in your school.
Schools in our
district will submit students' names to our committee.
Teachers look for a student who exhibits the core values of the
YMCA: Honesty, Respect, Responsibility, and Caring. These
youth are models of determination, cooperation, and fortitude in
their endeavors.
