TUToRING AT THE Y!

“ A good tutor can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning. ” – Brad Henry The Y provides one-on-one tutoring sessions in the areas of mathematics, language arts and science through instruction tailored to meet each students individual needs. Our educators are responsible for building a child’s confidence in conjunction with developing academic skills. Tutors are placed with individual students to provide support with homework and other academic needs, and are responsible for developing strategies that help each student succeed in the classroom.

Tutoring for All – If your child has a developmental

disability and is struggling in the classroom, they may benefit greatly from the one-on-one tutoring sessions provided by our qualified Special Educator. Inclusion is an important component of the Y’s mission and we happily open our doors to individuals with autism, Asperger’s Syndrome, ADD/ADHD, and related developmental and social delays. Working closely with parents and teachers, our Special Educator can help your child in various ways: reinforcing specific subject matter, helping with homework, suggesting improvements in organization and other study skills, boosting a child’s self-confidence, and fostering positive social interactions with peers and adults in the school setting.

Please see page 24 for Tutoring Program fees.

To schedule your session, contact Jackie Arena, Youth & Family Coordinator at ext. 375.

Aquatics Policy:

TEsT * MARk * PRoTEcT At the SOuTH SHORE YMCA we are committed to keeping all patrons as safe as possible while swimming. As such we will be implementing a new protocol in our Aquatics Department called Test * Mark * Protect. All children under 14 will be given a swim Test. Based on the swim test, or their age, individuals will be given a colored bracelet to Mark what areas of the pool they may use. using this system will help us Protect the children who use our pool.

Swim test results will be stored in our system and members will receive a colored membership tag, to bring with them to the pool to receive their bracelet. This will allow a convenient way to know each child’s color and swim ability each time they arrive at our pool or the Y. Swim tests will not need to happen every time you come to swim unless the individual or child wants to try for a higher level or the swim ability has changed drastically.

For questions or more detailed information regarding this program, please contact the SOUTH SHORE YMCA Aquatics Department:

By giving yourself to others, you also give yourself a chance to learn new things, make new friends, shape the future of your community and have fun!

Visit ssymca.org to search current volunteer opportunities.

And, if you’re still not sure how you can help, just remember…

Come Feel the Spirit at CAmP BurGeSS & HAYwArd Established in 1928, the SOUTH SHORE YMCA Camp Burgess for boys and Hayward for girls are located on Cape Cod, just one hour south of Boston, and situated on over 300 acres of forests, meadows and sparkling freshwater ponds. Camp offers a variety of enriching programs throughout the year appealing to all ages and interests.

Join us for February Vacation!

February 16th-21st, 2014 Ages 13-17 Since 1982, the Germantown Neighborhood Center (GNC) has been providing critical support services, needed resources, programs and workshops to the youth and families of the Germantown and neighboring communities of Quincy. Located within one of Quincy’s largest public housing developments, the GNC serves a community of mostly low-income, singleparent households and works with support and guidance from the SOUTH SHORE YMCA to identify and develop strategies to address community needs.

Our youth programs give kids a safe environment where they can grow and learn positive values that they will carry with them for a lifetime. Our after school youth programs run from September to June and include: Sports Blast, Fun Size Fitness, Reading Round Up, Dancing Divas and Girl Scouts to name a few. School vacation camps run during February, April and during the summer months for grades K–12. Women’s programs are designed to get women out of the house and build relationships with other women who are in the same situation. Childcare and dinner are often provided. Women are encouraged to bring the whole family while mom engages in skill-building workshops with other women. Our Family Lifelong Learning programs encourage literacy and educational achievement through our GED programs, or Teen Success programs. Our food pantry serves residents all over the City of Quincy with food assistance.

We continually work to raise more money, add more programs, and do all that we can to help. Our programs and services work toward giving community members the skills, confidence, and resources to take action and improve their lives.

You will perform strength-training and cardiovascular exercise on: • Wheelchair-accessible Total Access Cybex strength equipment • Recumbent and upright bikes, treadmills, rowers and ellipticals • Additional Cybex strength machines (for individuals capable of transferring)

• • •

MotoMed Viva 2: for movement therapy Seated Octane elliptical and Sci-fi Stepper with leg straps and wheelchair ramp TechnoGym entry level Easy Line strength equipment (for individuals capable of transferring)

TechnoGym Arm Ergometer

A volunteer will provide one-on-one instruction in our Health & Well-being Center for initial program design and training on the equipment. Your regular workout schedule will depend on you and your training partners’ availability.

What Equipment will you use for training in our pools?

In our aquatics center you will discover the physical and psychological benefits of weightless motion. Once you are outfitted with appropriate flotation, the aquatics team will add one or more of the following: Swim Fins, Goggles, Hand Paddles, and Snorkels to maximize your experience.

If you are interested in our Aquatics Division of the Partnership Program we have seven volunteers that are available Tuesday– Thursday. If you would like to “test the waters,” our team of aquatic instructors will do an evaluation, equip you with suitable flotation device(s), and instruct you throughout your exercise program to ensure you get a sound and safe water workout.

32

We invite you to first visit and tour our facility.

After a brief meeting with the Partnership Program Director, we ask that you: • Complete a Partnership Program application • Fill out a Medical History Questionnaire • Provide medical clearance by a physician • Submit an exercise prescription by a physical or occupational therapist (if applicable)

What does this program cost?

The Partnership Program is available to full YMCA members at no additional cost.

volunteer: in the spotlight bob Demaggio, an easy going guy, always goes with the flow... especially when it comes to water. A retired military veteran who served in the Army, Marines and Navy, Bob has always been a take-charge kind of guy. His competitive swimming background in college kept Bob busy along with teaching swimming classes, lifeguarding, and water safety instruction as a young adult.

Today, after 40 years in private practice as a dentist, he has come back home to the water. Bob is firmly convinced that the water has a calming and nurturing effect, much like the embryonic womb, what he refers to as “mummy’s tummy.” His words are taken seriously today since he founded the Aquatics Partnership at the Emilson Y, and proves his theory working with Partnership Program Participants who need assistance in the water. As a volunteer, Bob’s new duty station is at the Emilson Y where he leads a growing team of 7 volunteers (Bill Reid, Jim Beal, Jeanine Adams, Sarah Foley, Jim Judge and Laurie Hayes).

Bob no longer actively serves his country, but serves his community wholeheartedly at his local YMCA here in Hanover.

For more information about our Partnership Program or to become a volunteer, please contact MaryEllen Olson at ext. 322, or Bill McCormick at 339-788-1533.

What does so much more mean? Together, we will: • Expand youth programs to nurture the potential of every child and teen • Focus specific programs on reducing chronic disease and childhood obesity • Educate every generation to protect and preserve our natural resources through environmental and natural science education

cut out and save

• Offer a wide range of camp experiences that through developing independence and fostering a sense of acceptance and belonging, cultivate the future leaders of tomorrow

We need your philanthropic support to make it happen.

Every gift makes a difference.

Together, we can achieve so much more. ssymca.org/donations
