Manitowoc-Two Rivers YMCA

This week, we're excited to spotlight Sarah! Since joining the YMCA in May, Sarah has quickly found a home in Group Power, Cycling, and Body Sculpt, while continuing her lifelong passion for health and fitness. A former Jazzercise instructor, longtime distance runner, and marathon finisher, Sarah believes that fitness is the foundation for a healthy, confident, and fulfilling life. Alongside her husband, Mark, she has raised two daughters who also value healthy and active lifestyles. Whether she's working out at the Y, practicing yoga, enjoying a local coffee shop, or delivering flowers for The Flower Gallery, Sarah embraces wellness in all aspects of life. Sarah shares that the supportive community at the Y helps keep her motivated and reminds her that self-confidence built in the gym extends far beyond its walls. Thank you, Sarah, for inspiring others and helping make our YMCA community stronger every day!

Caring. Honesty. Respect. Responsibility.

During Welcoming Week, our staff nominated members who exemplify and consistently demonstrate our YMCA core values. We are grateful for these individuals whose kindness, integrity, respect for others, and sense of responsibility help make our Y a welcoming and supportive community every day. Thank you to our Core Value Award recipients, and to all of our members who make our YMCA a better place!
