HUTCHINSON, Kan. — David Foster with the Hutchinson YMCA wants people to get started getting healthy even before their New Year's resolutions kick in.
"We have a pay nothing promotion," Foster said. "There would be no joiner fee. That would normally be a $50 value and there's no prorated amount for January either, so you just join and you wouldn't pay until you are drafted in February. It's a pretty good time to join the Y."
It's also good to get in now, as the Y is looking at expansion in Hutchinson long-term, too.
"I was able to go to the school board meeting last month and talk to them a little bit about what our hopes are and some dreams there," Foster said. "We are still continuing those conversations and hope to have something a little more concrete by the first quarter of 2023, which is pretty exciting and kind of allows us to stay in the area we're in now, if that were to work out like we hope."
The YMCA is also looking for help in 2023, as well.
"We're always hiring," Foster said. "We always want to build our bench, so to speak. We're always looking for good people that have a heart of service and just enjoy being around people. We can always find a spot for them, either at the front desk, I know Shaley's always looking for group instructors and personal trainers and lifeguards are always a hot commodity, as well. We provide all the training."
