Waynesboro Area YMCA

Nonprofits helping nonprofits 💙

We were honored to host a group of local campers yesterday for a swim safety refresher ahead of their rafting adventure in Harpers Ferry!

From water safety fundamentals to confidence-building swim techniques, our YMCA instructors helped ensure the group was prepared for a fun and safe experience on the water 🌊🚣‍♀️
