Exciting News! Giant Food Community Bag Program!
|
We are so excited to share that CYA has been selected to be a part of the Giant Food Community Bag Program, which is designed to make it easy for customers to contribute to their local community while supporting the environment.
For the month of January, each time a reusable $2.50 Community Bag is purchased at the Giant Food located in the Greenbrier Shopping Center, $1 will be donated to CYA!
This is a great way to raise awareness, support the environment and fundraise for our cause. Let’s get started! We can begin by spreading the news to our friends and family. Call, send emails, and post on social media. The more people who learn about the program and purchase the Community Bag during the month of January, the more money we will raise.

Play Safely at the CYA Fieldhouse!
|
Our staff at the CYA Fieldhouse is doing a terrific job in making sure all of our members and user groups are kept safe. In order to support them, we have some simple procedures in place that absolutely need to be followed by anyone who is taking part in recreational activities at the FH.
First and foremost, we are not permitting spectators in the building at this time. If your kids are playing at the Fieldhouse, drop them off at the front door and wait in the parking lot for them to finish their activity. We know... it's a bummer that you can't watch your kids play but things will change soon enough and for now, we are focused on making sure all of our kids are kept safe.
For a list of things we do at the Fieldhouse to keep everyone safe, follow the link below.
