The Flyers Team consists of levels 4 through 9 and has approximately 40 gymnasts competing. The girls have worked hard to get through all the instructional levels to earn their way to team. Team try-outs are held each year in June as a part of our annual Summer Gymnastics Camp.

National Champions 2006 Hanover, PA 2007 Seattle, WA 2008 Sheboygan, WI 2009 Philadelphia, PA 2011 Toledo, OH 2012 Milwaukee, WI National Competitors

The Flyers are coached by Karen Oelker, Amy Killey, Dani Iorfida, Chloe’ Oelker , Kathleen Lavery and Tiffany Haag. Our goal as coaches is and always has been to not only make this a strong, winning team, but to teach our girls the importance of working together and supporting each other.

We believe what they learn here will stay with them long after they have stopped competing.

Scholarships: It is the policy of the Y to provide services for any adult, senior or child who desires to participate and understands the benefits of the YMCA, regardless of ability to pay the standard membership or program fee. Those not able to pay the full fee may be awarded partial assistance based on their demonstrated ability to pay and the YMCA’s ability to fund the subsidy. Financial Aid will only be provided for Fox Valley Family YMCA members. Families receiving Financial Aid will be eligible to receive a maximum of $1000.00 for every six months

Community Support Campaign: Walk into any of our program sites or facilities and you will see people of all ages and incomes.

If a person or family is unable to pay for membership, scholarships may be provided through donations from generous businesses, foundations and individuals. The demand for scholarships and program sponsorships increases every year. More than 1,000 individuals received assistance last year. Your gifts are needed to keep the YMCA open to all. Contributions can be made with stock, cash, credit card or through a small increase to your monthly membership bank draft.

Capital Campaign: In addition to annual contributions for scholarship and program support, our YMCA is actively reinvesting in facilities to meet the needs of kids, teens, families and seniors for generations to come.

Every gift, large or small, is important as we look to your YMCA’s future.

ENDOWMENT/HERITAGE CLUB: The Heritage Club is an organization of people who have shown their long-term interest and support of our YMCA by either a direct contribution to the Endowment Fund, or by including the YMCA in their estate plans. It is the commitment rather than the amount that is the basic factor in qualifying as a Heritage Club member.

Heritage Club Membership: An individual or couple is qualified for Heritage Club membership by any of the following: An outright gift to the YMCA Endowment Fund of cash, securities, property or other marketable assets. Creation of a unitrust, annuity trust, gift annuity, pooled-income fund, short-term trust or other life estate program. Naming the Fox Valley Family YMCA as the eventual recipient of a life insurance policy, qualified retirement plan, 401 (k), 403 (b), or IRA. Naming the Fox Valley Family YMCA to receive a bequest in one’s will. Expressing intent to do any one of the foregoing at such time as circumstances permit.

Volunteer: Donate your time! The Y is always looking for volunteers. Youth who volunteer are less likely to engage in risky behavior, are more likely to feel connected to their communities, and tend to do better in school. Fill out a volunteer application.
