SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE WINTER PROGRAM GUIDE FALL PROGRAM GUIDE JANUARY-MARCH September-December EVERETT FAMILY FAMILY YMCA YMCA EVERETT

Welcome to the YMCA! For over 116 years, your Everett Family YMCA has greeted children and families in the Fall with quality youth enriching experiences. We invite you to explore our preschool programs that prepare children for early learning and kindergarten readiness, our licensed school age child care programs offering convenience and peace of mind, or our free teen programs that provide our youth the opportunity to give back and serve their community. We also encourage you to try our myriad of wellness programs designed to provide new-found energy and strength. Your YMCA has something for everyone. On October 15, we encourage you to join YMCA supporters at the Annual Bright Futures Benefit Auction with proceeds benefiting YMCA youth programs. In the 29 years of this event, over $1 million has been raised for the Everett Family YMCA. We hope you can join us for a great evening. At the YMCA, you can become engaged and involved in a community that has served the greater Everett area for well over a century. Welcome to the Everett Family YMCA; for youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. Ted Wenta Senior Vice President of Operations

MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION NOW IT’S EASIER THAN EVER TO JOIN THE Y! Membership in the Y is a special thing. Be a part of a leading nonprofit organization for youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. The YMCA of Snohomish County is a membership organization and anyone can join. So, with simple monthly dues, you have no contracts or minimum stays to worry about and no sales pitches to endure. Just quality, healthy programs that your whole family can enjoy.

MEMBERSHIP TYPES FACILITY MEMBERSHIP Get full access to fitness centers at all five YMCAs in Snohomish County with a Facility Membership. Choose from a wide menu of free group exercise classes, enjoy lap and recreational swimming, and receive a free wellness orientation when you join. And as a facility member, you’ll be eligible for priority registration and reduced fees on specialty classes and programs for your whole family. PROGRAM MEMBERSHIP If you’re not already a Y Facility Member and want to participate in programs like summer camps, youth sports, swimming lessons and child care, you’ll need an annual Program Membership. You’ll receive the same great level of quality and caring for which the Y is known, but without access to wellness centers and other amenities offered through a full Facility Membership. COMMUNITY MEMBERSHIP Belonging is a philosophy at the heart of the Y. Everyone in the community is considered a free Community Member and is welcome to participate in key community events and programs such as fun runs, health fairs, and community education. MY Y IS NOW EVERY Y IN WASHINGTON We want to encourage members to use the Y as often as they can. Sometimes, it’s more convenient for members to use a Y in a different location when travelling, near a workplace, or in another region. Now, full facility/full privilege YMCA members can use other Y facilities throughout the state. See website for program details.

HEALTHY LIVING YMCA’S DIABETES PREVENTION PROGRAM

WHAT IS PREDIABETES?

If you are at high risk for type 2 diabetes, the YMCA’s Diabetes Prevention Program can help you adopt and maintain healthy lifestyles that will help you reduce your chances of developing diabetes.

Prediabetes is a condition in which individuals have blood glucose levels that are higher than normal, but not high enough to be classified as diabetes. People with prediabetes are at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.

The YMCA’s Diabetes Prevention Program helps those at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes adopt and maintain healthy lifestyles by eating healthier, increasing physical activity and losing a modest amount of weight in order to reduce their chances of developing the disease.

An estimated one in three U.S. adults has prediabetes, yet just 11% of those with prediabetes know they have it. Prediabetes increases the risk of type 2 diabetes, heart disease and stroke.

Research by the National Institutes of Health has proven that programs like the YMCA’s Diabetes Prevention Program can reduce the number of cases of type 2 diabetes by 58%. PROGRAM GOALS:



Reduce body weight by 7%



Increase physical activity to 150 minutes per week

DETAILS: In a classroom setting, a trained lifestyle coach will facilitate a small group of participants in learning about healthier eating, physical activity, and other behavior changes. The year-long program consists of 25 sessions over the course of one year. WHO CAN PARTICIPATE? In order to qualify for the program, you must be at least18 years old, overweight (BMI > 25)* and at high risk for developing type 2 diabetes indicated by a confirmatory blood value†, prediabetes determined by clinical diagnosis of Gestational Diabetes (GDM) during previous pregnancy, or a qualifying risk score. (see qualifications at right…similar to the rack card or the quiz page in the brochure) TO SEE IF YOU QUALIFY, AND TO ENROLL, CONTACT: Andrea Weiler 360 453 2190

*Asian individual (s) BMI > 22 †Individuals who have already

been diagnosed with either type 1 or type 2 diabetes do not qualify for this program.

Risk for developing type 2 diabetes may be reduced or eliminated by weight loss, healthier eating, and increased physical activity. Visit our website today to take a quiz to learn if you are at risk for prediabetes and type 2 diabetes. Visit ymca-snoco.org/ prevent diabetes.
