The White Bear Area YMCA provides over $200,000 dollars a year in financial assistance to Youth, Individuals, Families and Seniors facing financial struggles, so they can participate in YMCA programs and services thanks to our generous donors.  Many people see the Y as a “gym and swim” but we are so much more.  The needs continues to rise and so the WBA Y will be holding our 1st annual “Fore the Y!” Golf Tournament.  This event will help us raise additional funds along with providing the community more awareness to all that the YMCA truly does and offers in our community.  We are proud to say that 100% of all proceeds from this event will stay right here in the White Bear Area to meet those needs.  We are asking for the community support to be sponsors, golfers and by provide silent auction items.  For more information you can visit our website at www.ymcamn.org/whitebear-fore-the-y .  You can also contact Chris Kost direct at 651-259-2125 or Chris.Kost@ymcamn.org
