Coming up Monday, September 7th we are supporting a non-profit that is near and dear to many Botetourt hearts. On Labor Day, we will be supporting the Steve R. Bailey and Kerry P. Morris Y Splash Endowment. This Endowment was created to celebrate the lives and legacy of these two wonderful men. Never heard of the Y Splash Program? Let's tell you a little about it.
-->Y Splash is provided at no cost to students and families, thanks to the generosity of donors and community partners. But the need for water safety education continues to grow.
This endowment helps ensure Y Splash remains sustainable at the Botetourt Family YMCA long into the future by creating permanent funding that supports:
• Water safety instruction for second graders
• Pool time and aquatics staffing
• Transportation support for participating schools
• Take-home safety materials for families
• Follow-up swim lessons for non-swimmers
The Steve R. Bailey and Kerry P. Morris Y Splash Endowment will help ensure that children, year after year, have access to the life-saving skills they need. By supporting this endowment, you are helping protect children, strengthen families, and honor two friends whose lives were defined by generosity and heart.
Now, how do you show your support? Stop by or order out from 11 AM to 10 PM Monday. We will donate 10% of all food and non-alcoholic drink sales for all business hours. No worries if your forget to mention the Endowment as we will donate automatically. Can't make it by? You can STILL make a difference. Follow this link:
