Misty R. has been a member of the Downtown Y since January, when her family joined together while her daughter was home from college. For them, the Y has become a place to stay active together while still focusing on their own individual wellness goals.
The YMCA360 app has played a big role in keeping Misty engaged and motivated.
“The YMCA360 app helps us find classes at different branches and encourages us to compete in challenges,” she shared. “I’m in both yearlong and monthly challenges because the points I earn can be traded in for a Bee Healthy Cafe smoothie. I’m incredibly smoothie motivated, so it’s been encouraging.”
With rewards like smoothies from the Bee Healthy Cafe, with one located inside the Earlywine Park YMCA, members like Misty are finding fun and unique ways to stay active and consistent.
Stories like this show how the YMCA360 app helps members stay motivated, build healthy habits, and enjoy every step of their wellness journey.
