Thank you to everyone who participated! It was wonderful to see all the things you are looking forward to doing again! Keep working hard at home and we will see you soon!



In 2015, the Westport Weston Family YMCA Board of Trustees established the Bedford Family Social Responsibility Fund (the “Fund”) to give back to the community and carry forward the legacy of Ruth Bedford. This fund focuses on supporting local organizations that support children and young adults so that they can reach their full potential through education, arts and physical activity.

The Westport Weston Family YMCA values our youth members and wants to help them stay engaged and develop skills during this time of remote learning.  We have created a fun activity children of all ages can do.

Since the YMCA is currently closed we want to know what your kids miss the most about coming to the Y! Through either an essay, story or picture kids can submit what they miss the most and be entered to win either a $25 or $10 gift card to Amazon!

The drawing took place on Wednesday, April 30.

Essays, stories and pictures were emailed to dlebrando@westporty.org or mailed to:
