Volunteer

From board members to youth sports coaches to smiling greeters, volunteers are the heart of the Y. Becoming a volunteer allows individuals to give back and learn something about themselves in the process. After all, the Y is a nonprofit like no other! Get involved today for a better us.

All prospective volunteers must fill out an application and pass a criminal background screening prior to placement.

Potential volunteer opportunities include youth sports coaches and referees, special events help, volunteering in any of our departments (youth development, aquatics, fitness, and sports), fundraising, and anything else you may think of that can help our community!
