Upcoming activities at the Y
LiveStrong at the Y. The Boothbay Region YMCA, in partnership with the Boothbay community and local health professionals, is offering a second session of this program designed to support cancer survivors in their quest to regain physical, emotional and spiritual strength.
LiveStrong is a free 12-week program, providing a supportive environment that encourages a survivor’s journey back to a healthier well-being. Participants will be guided through specialized group exercise classes and strength training programs by Y staff members who have received specific training in cancer treatment and recovery. The free program begins February 4 and is held on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 11 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. Please sign up ASAP.
Trek Across Maine, Indoors. Presented by the American Lung Association and the Boothbay Region YMCA, the Trek Across Maine has moved indoors; well at least the training has. Join our certified instructors who take you across the state of Maine from Bethel to Belfast on the actual route of the Trek from start to finish including actual mileage and terrain.
Start preparing now for the June 13-15, 2014 event. Even if you don’t do the outdoor event you can take the challenge now to do something for your health and the health of others. (Participants who sign up for the program get T-shirt and a percentage of the class fee will go to the American Lung Association.)
All ages can participate but you must be at least five feet tall. No experience necessary.
