Spaghetti Feed- Sunday Feb 26
It will be an opportunity to learn more about the new Mills County YMCA/Community Center and help the children of the community.
On Sunday, Feb. 26, the staff and volunteers of the YMCA will be hosting a Spaghetti Feed from noon to 2 p.m. at the Mills County YMCA , 110 Sivers Road . Free-will donations will be accepted for lunch. The money will go to the YMCA’s Strong Kids Campaign, which provides financial assistance to those who need help with YMCA membership and program fees.
The Mills County YMCA ’s Strong Kids Campaign fundraising goal is $25,000. That money will stay at the Mills County YMCA to provide membership and program scholarships to kids, teens and families in need. DeEtte VonEsson is serving as the campaign chair for the Mills County YMCA . “This is an opportunity for the community to visit with staff and volunteers about programs, charter memberships and to see the building,” said Leo McIntosh, executive director of the Mills County YMCA .
In addition to lunch, the event will include face painting and a space bouncer for the kids and hard hat tours, weather permitting. “This will be a great family event and opportunity for the community to get involved with the Mills County YMCA ,” McIntosh said. The new Mills County YMCA/Community Center project includes 31,000 square feet of new construction. The 16,000 square feet formerly occupied by the Iowa National Guard Armory (also called the Glenwood Recreation Center ) will become the YMCA’s Child Care Center.
The new Mills County YMCA/Community Center will be a state-of-the-art facility complete with a swimming pool, a community center, a teen center, a child care center and a health and wellness center with multiple exercise machines, cardio equipment, free weights and personal training. Services include aquatics, camping, child care, family programs, health and wellness programs, youth and teen programs, youth sports, older adult activities and community development.
