Hi team! Another meet weekend coming up, and I am excited to see our team back in action! There have been important developments that are impacting our YMCAs that I wanted to share. At the last meet down in Everett, we had a coaches meeting in which Earl (PSSA officials coordinator) expressed some dire news. We are slated to be losing 20 officials across the league (last year had several seniors and with that, parent volunteers). Many of the officials that have been helping run Y State are also PNS/USA...

Good morning team, First off, I want to give a big thank you to our volunteers that helped with our mock meet yesterday!
