Meet Stacy Beebe, Ross Farnsworth-East Valley YMCA’s newly appointed Youth and Family Director. Stacy oversees our Amazing Kids (child care), After School Program, Summer Day Camp, and Adventure Programs. Stacy has worked at the Y about 2 years working with our Y kids and in membership. Her passion is working with children.

Working at the YMCA has been an amazing opportunity for me. Not only do I get to bring my children to work with me but the YMCA also helps me work around my schedule so I can still go home and nap my youngest and pick up my oldest from school every day. I have always wanted to work with children and would love to be a teacher someday!

The staff has been supportive and encouraging to me to step outside my fitness comfort zone. I have completed two half marathons in three months and am training for my next run. I am more knowledgeable on nutrition and proper form when lifting thanks to the informative trainers and staff.
