MISSION POSSIBLE at Waldron Family YMCA

Join us at the Waldron Family Y for an 8-week weight loss challenge!

Starts February 9!

$30 for members. $60 for non-members. (Non-members get full use of the Y and all its classes for the duration of the challenge.)

Mission Possible is an 8-week weight loss program designed to help you achieve a PERSONAL weight loss goal that you set for yourself!

Weight loss goal must be at least 5 lbs and no greater than 16 lbs  (a two-pound weight loss per week is  considered healthy).

In addition to our current exercises classes, you will have the opportunity to attend up to four additional 30-minute classes each week. Those class times are as follows:

• Mondays @ 5:30pm
• Wednesdays @ 5:30 pm
• Tuesdays @ 10:00 am
• Thursdays @ 10:00 am

Every Thursday evening you will have the  opportunity to have a sit down healthy meal or a nutrition talk from a registered dietician.

The Y will help you keep a food and exercise log to monitor your progress.

Once you reach your goal you will receive a t-shirt that says: “Mission Accomplished!”

Contact the Y at 540.268.1623 or staci@vtymca.org.

Mike Cronin receives “Karen Cronin Volunteer of the Year Award”

Mountain Valley Charitable Foundation (MVCF) named Mike Cronin its first ever EastMont Volunteer of the Year, an award named in honor of his wife, Karen, who passed away in February.

The “Karen Cronin Volunteer of the Year Award” was presented at a Volunteer Appreciation Dinner on Saturday at The Meadowbrook Center.

In 2011, Mike volunteered in the following ways:

• He dealt blackjack at MVCF’s ShawsVegas Casino Night fundraiser;
• He hosted the Butterflies & Bruschetta dinner for sponsors of the EastMont Tomato Festival;
• He volunteered at Ladies Night Out;
• He grew butterfly bushes that were donated to MVCF for various events;
• And he worked countless hours on landscaping projects at The Meadowbrook Center — namely on a library garden dedicated to Karen Cronin’s memory.
