A message from our Executive Director: 

Geauga Family YMCA Members, 
I have had the great opportunity to be the Executive Director of the Geauga Family YMCA for the past 3+ years but have decided to take a position with the Tampa YMCA and my last day with the Geauga Y will be March 8. The kindness of Geauga County has truly amazed me and allowed me to have a great experience leading the YMCA. We anticipate to get a strong pool of candidates and I am confident we will find a terrific person to lead the Geauga Family YMCA moving forward. I have had the great opportunity to know many of you and your families personally and wish you all continued health and happiness. 

​Thank You! 
- Paul Conley
