strengthening the foundations of our community
FAMILY YMCA OF GREATER AUGUSTA 2014 Annual Report STRENGTHENING THE FOUNDATIONS OF OUR COMMUNITY STRENGTHENING THE FOUNDATIONS OF OUR COMMUNITY In our 157th year of service to the CSRA, we continued to add valuable membership benefits and new programs to better serve our community. This year, those additions meant a boost to our membership growth with more than 1,900 new memberships added to the Y family. Hundreds of families joined so that their children could enjoy the new Metro Family membership benefit of free youth sports programs. The new benefit added in January includes year-round free youth sports so that no child’s sports participation is limited by the cost. The resulting increase in our sports enrollment reinforced the value of this additional benefit for our families with children. Offering the CrossFit program as a member benefit at three of our facilities encouraged devotees of the popular fitness regimen to join at the Wilson, Augusta South and North Augusta Family Ys. Enhancements and growth continued in our association throughout 2014. In October, Phase 1 of the enhancement plan for the Wilson Family YMCA outdoor sports complex was completed and the new Fieldhouse was opened to the community. Future phases include rubberizing the outdoor track, creating accessible pathways to link the outdoor amenities, and building an accessible playground. John Steiner 2014 Chairman Metro Board of Directors Fundraising continued in 2014 for two major projects: the renovation of Camp Lakeside and the relocation of the Thomson Family YMCA. In partnership with the Children’s Hospital of Georgia, we have launched an effort to renovate our beautiful Camp Lakeside to become accessible for all children, including those with disabilities and critical illnesses. A $2 million donation in 2014 from the Augusta National Golf Club and the CSRA Community Foundation got us off to a great start. Fundraising continues as we work toward offering special-needs and traditional summer camps in 2016. In Thomson, the former location of University Hospital-McDuffie will be transformed to become a regional Family YMCA including an outdoor pool, expansive wellness center, childcare spaces, and the new home of the Y130 Program Center. Fundraising continues as plans are made to open in summer of 2016. The 2014 Annual Campaign was our most successful to date with more than $793,000 raised. More than ever, the community depends on the Y to provide the financial assistance needed so that everyone has access to the life-strengthening programs of the Y. More than $1.8 million was awarded in scholarships during the year with nearly 80 percent of that amount ensuring access to safe childcare, afterschool care, and summer and holiday camps for lowincome families. The Family Y of Greater Augusta continues to be recognized as a national model for our inclusion efforts and adapted programs, including Miracle League Baseball, the Kathryn M. York Adapted Aquatics Center, the Total Access Wellness Center and our initiative to offer adapted camps at Camp Lakeside. The newly created English as a Second Language (ESL) program at the Steiner Branch Family YMCA provides free English lessons to immigrants. Inclusion of all people continues to be the benchmark of service in our organization. Danny McConnell President and CEO Family YMCA of Greater Augusta 2 Our Family Y family continued to expand this year as plans were put in place to open our tenth family and wellness center in Barnwell County, South Carolina. The leadership of Barnwell County achieved objectives in order to demonstrate community support for the new facility and a Branch Executive Director was hired to lead the effort. The new facility opened in January 2015, quickly exceeding the goals for a new Y. As we move forward with plans for expansion and growth in several communities, our focus remains on strengthening our community through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. The YMCA is and always will be dedicated to building healthy, confident, secure and connected children, families and communities. 2014 BOARD OF DIRECTORS METRO BOARD John Steiner, Chairman Dr. Bill Barfield Ginger Chew Bill Coleman Elizabeth Coleman Chris Conner Zack Daffin Ivy Elam Ed Enoch Lisa Firmender Dr. Greg Francisco Nancy Glaser Cheryl Jones David Jobe Kaci Johnson Scott Johnson Richard Kershner George Lokey Larry Lynn Keven Mack Tammy Mertins Matt Mills Russ Morgan Cheryl Mulvehill Robert O’Neal Brian Parr Walker Posey Roxane Patterson Lynn Smith Claire Stone Catherine Stuckey Sandra Vantrease Shawn Vincent Don Winslow Chris Withers Bennett Yort AIKEN COUNTY FAMILY YMCA Brian Parr, Chairman Tony Baughman Heather Brazell Bob Deering Dennis Donati Jim Egan Denise Fulmer Jennifer Hart Wes Holbrook Jeff Howell William Hudson Molly Jones Monica Key Toni Marshall Sam McGill Elizabeth Morris Marcia Nash Tina Nordeen Lessie Price Larry Schrade Philly Sorenson Joel Stewart Ann Marie Taylor Mike Thomas Teddy Weeks David Zielinski AUGUSTA SOUTH FAMILY YMCA/PRIME TIME Cheryl Jones, Chairman Adam Anderson Dr. Eleanor Hopson Tony Smiley Tony Wright Steve Norsworthy Marlon Brown Jonathan Hill Stefanie Bowie Quenshauna Motley Jerry Swain Tabitha Ashley DOWNTOWN AUGUSTA FAMILY YMCA Roxane Patterson, Chairman Camille Bruce Brooke Buxton Barbara Coleman Nesbit Dasher Wendy George Brian Kyzer Ann Marie McManus Stephen Beckett Natalie Nixon Teri Perry Michael Taylor Margaret Woodward William Bacon MARSHALL AND STEINER BRANCH FAMILY YMCAs Scott Johnson, Chairman Ron Brown Dave Brunk Ron Carter Fabio Castro Mike Corley Randy DuTeau Gary Fogus Gary Holley Matt Ivey Trey Kennedy Chris Landrum Brian Lunde Grey Meybohm Jennifer Michael Adam Nelson Robert Thurman NORTH AUGUSTA FAMILY YMCA Chris Withers, Chairman Phyllis Boyd Janet Baumgardner Rachel Covar Heather DiCicco Tom Denlinger Dr. Cecelia Hewett Emily Goodman Will Greene Dee Dee Kurilla Michael McCauley Warren Mobley Didier Norris Verne Sadler Steve Swanson Austin Taylor Maryanna Thornton Laura Warren Penny Wasden THOMSON FAMILY YMCA George Lokey, Chairman Andy Knox Bobby Hildreth Bubba Swan Charlie Crawford Cheryl Johnson Chris McCorkle Dianne Landers Jennifer Newton John Riley Johnny Reid Kathy Hawkins Kathy Usry Lenny Schaeffer Paige Hyman Rindi Harbeson Robert Wilson Scott Campbell Stephanie Johnson Will Long William Coleman Wynelle Ruehle WILSON FAMILY YMCA Ed Enoch, Chairman Chris Caldwell Dr. Tony Robinson Frank Chandler Elizabeth Lamb Dana Morgan Dr. Greg DeLoach Gloria Moore Reese LeRoy Bob Evans Jim Havlick Elizabeth Pinkus Brinsley Thigpen Dan Holloway Dr. Greg Francisco Brian Prince Jeff Drake Kat Johnson Sheriff Richard Roundtree Chris Cosby Mike Heath 3 2014 BRANCH HIGHLIGHTS 4 AIKEN COUNTY FAMILY YMCA The Aiken County community continues to support our efforts to provide fun, healthy activities. In the summer of 2014, our camp enrollment doubled from the previous summer and more families than ever depended on the Y to provide safe, fun summer activities for their children. We introduced three new adult sports this year and had more than 150 participate in our adult kickball, soccer and flag football programs. The second annual “That Fall Family Fun Thing” event was held in October with our partner church, Cedar Creek West. AUGUSTA SOUTH FAMILY YMCA Our branch got off to a strong start this year by opening a dedicated space for S.A.Y. CrossFit as a free member benefit. As a result of new programming, we exceeded our membership goals in 10 out of 12 months in 2014. Our youth sports program thrived this year with baseball being reintroduced and a local basketball league offered at Pinehill Middle School. More than 100 children participated in the basketball and cheerleading programs. We continue to offer after-school care at our branch with 30 children from Windsor Spring Elementary School attending each afternoon. Our branch hosts the LIVESTRONG at the YMCA program twice per year and had 12 cancer survivors participate in each session.

MARSHALL FAMILY YMCA Our branch expanded our after-school program to include students from both Evans and Martinez Elementary schools. Our summer camp participation grew by 40 percent over the previous summer. Because of space limitations at our branch, we continue to partner with Wesley United Methodist Church and the Augusta Jewish Community Center to host our youth sports program and summer and holiday camps. DOWNTOWN AUGUSTA FAMILY YMCA Our branch created a new corporate wellness program this year called Optimal Health and Performance. The program has increased our visibility and impact with our corporate members. We have benefitted from the assistance and expertise of wellness interns this year, thanks to our strong relationships with GRU and USC Aiken. Two new group exercise classes were added this year: POUND and Refit. Our branch continues to provide after-school care for 30 low-income students from three downtown elementary schools. Our exposure was increased this year thanks to our relationship with the Augusta Market on the River and the Triple 8 Run. NORTH AUGUSTA FAMILY YMCA Our branch added a popular new membership benefit this year by opening the N.A.Y. CrossFit facility. Thirteen classes per week are offered including four for those new to CrossFit. Our branch participated for the first time in the association’s YWFL fitness program with nine teams including 36 members and staff. In March, we re-established our Annual Campaign Golf Tournament. The 38 players helped to raise more than $5,000 toward our fundraising goal. NORTH JEFFERSON FAMILY YMCA Our programs and membership continued to grow in 2014. We began offering our first elementary afterschool program at Wrens Elementary with 22 participants in our first year.

STEINER BRANCH FAMILY YMCA In our first full year of service to the Grovetown community, we continue to grow. This year, we partnered with Grovetown Elementary school to begin offering an after-school care program at our branch. Our youth sports participation increased this year by 40 percent and we now partner with Grovetown Parks and Recreation to host our youth sports at Liberty Park. Our partnership with Quest Church continues as they began work on their permanent campus nearby. We began offering free English as a Second Language (ESL) on Sunday afternoons. THOMSON FAMILY YMCA This was a big year for the Thomson Family YMCA as we made great progress on our capital campaign to raise the funds needed to move to our new facility in the former University Hospital-McDuffie campus. Our membership continues to grow as we put a greater emphasis on offering corporate wellness options for the businesses in our area. At the Y130 Program Center, additional programs give more children than ever healthy activities to choose. For the first time this year, our gymnastics program began competing. We began offering a teen summer camp and new twirling and creative crafting classes. More than 125 participated in our annual Father-Daughter dance. WILSON FAMILY YMCA The Wilson Family YMCA experienced tremendous growth in membership in 2014 thanks to the addition of the new CrossFit program and free youth sports as a member benefit. We celebrated our 40th year of soccer with a ribbon-cutting of our new Fieldhouse at our outdoor sports complex. A partnership was developed with the Richmond County Sheriff’s Office which provided a substation at the Y as well as a Computer Center for the teen program. A new Teen Council was established that led to hosting lock-ins, providing leadership and safe activities for teens. We reached our 10,000th SPLASH participant this year. Many partnerships were developed through our Miracle League program as it saw tremendous growth in 2014. The Augusta Green Jackets hosted the Miracle League for a “friendly” game and allowed the Miracle League participants to throw out the first pitch to open the game. We sent four Miracle League players to the Atlanta Braves Dream Camp. We began a 40 & over basketball league and continue to expand our adult sports programs. 2014 HIGHLIGHTS 1,525 VOLUNTEERS contributed more than 34,000 HOURS of manpower and expertise while implementing the Y’s mission within our community.
