Give the Y a High-Five!
- We are asking each of our members to give the Y a high five in August. Every member who donates $5 to West Shore's annual campaign will get their name on a handprint and be able to put it up anywhere in our branch.
Staff Pie in the Face!
- During the month of August many of our employees (leadership and front line alike) will have jars with their faces on them. Members are invited to put their spare change in the jars. At the end of the month the employee who raised the most money will get a pie in the face. All proceeds will go to the annual campaign!
