We will then donate them to help our neighborhood schools. You\u2019ll receive a free guest pass when you bring in a donation.<\/li>\n<li>Please take a moment to complete our online <a href=\"https:\/\/www.surveymonkey.com\/r\/26GVZ6C\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">member survey<\/a> by Aug. 16.<\/li>\n<li>We will be hosting a PoolSide @ the Y event for members at the Ross Farnsworth East Valley YMCA from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 18.
