Welcoming Week September 10-19

The week is an opportunity for neighbors to get to know each other and celebrate what unites us, according to the Y. They will be hosting unique activities throughout the week that are free and open to community members.

Free Try the Y Days

In addition to the free events, they are offering free Try The Y days. For the Lake Superior YMCA, all its locations will be free on Friday, September 11th. That includes the branches in Duluth, Hermantown, and Superior.

Then, on Friday, September 18th, Free Try the Y Day will happen at the Cook County YMCA.

“At the Lake Superior YMCA, we believe belonging isn’t just something we talk about; it’s something we create together,” said Sara Cole, President & CEO. “For generations, the Y has been a place where neighbors can find connection and community. During Welcoming Week, we’re proud to continue that tradition here in Northern Minnesota and Wisconsin bringing people together and celebrating the many stories and experiences that make our community stronger.”
