YMCA Celebration and Tour

On Saturday afternoon I visited the YMCA in Forest Road where Tim Pain, Chief Executive and his staff had organised a day of fun and activities. The event was to mark 44 years of the YMCA providing sports, fitness and leisure facilities for the community and it was great to see so many people and young children enjoying themselves. What is exciting is that the YMCA have already started work on building a bigger and better sports centre and I look forward to visiting the new centre once this is completed.


The most fantastic part of the day was when I was asked to bury a time capsule on site to mark the date in history and for future generations to find. Who knows what the next 44 years will bring or what the people who find the capsule will make of its contents!!!
