\nA.<\/strong>\u00a0 Giving back to the Y. The Y has been good to me and my family over the years. I did some coaching for the Y when my son was young, at Corbell Park, in soccer, basketball and touch football.<\/p>\n
\nA.<\/strong>\u00a0 In 1993, when there was just one building here. How it has grown over the years!<\/p>\n
\nA.<\/strong>\u00a0 Utica, which is in upstate N.Y., and then I moved to Massachusetts.<\/p>\n
\nA.<\/strong>\u00a0 Families can participate in activities together. Sports for kids is also an important aspect of the Y. I feel that the Y sports programs give youth the opportunity to both reveal and promote character and character development.<\/p>\n
\nA.<\/strong>\u00a0 It helps with fundraising campaigns and development of the budget for the Y each year. It will help with underprivileged families as well.<\/p>\n
\nA.<\/strong>\u00a0 No, but I was a board member at the real estate association that I was involved with for years, which makes me uniquely qualified for this board position.<\/p>\n
\nA.<\/strong>\u00a0 I do, and I also feel that we have some of the best senior programs in the Valley and the best instruction anywhere.<\/p>\n
\nA.<\/strong>\u00a0 I think it\u2019s great the way the Y empowers young adults and teens through such programs as Young Leaders Club and the Teen Club.<\/p>\n
\nA.<\/strong>\u00a0 I would say it has changed with the different trends in exercise and how they are presented to the members. Examples are group fight, core and group power.<\/p>\n
\nA.<\/strong>\u00a0 Helping obtain contributions from the corporate sector to promote the longevity of the Y and its programs.<\/p>\n
