Dear Linsey,
There is lots of activity at the Y this summer! Kids Central reopened on Monday, July 10, the Rosettes Gymnastics Team returned as champions from YMCA National Gymnastics Championship and Invitational in Ohio, and the Madison Area YMCA earned a second consecutive Top Workplaces in NJ distinction. Our School of Performing Arts wowed the audience at their year-end performance! Coming soon is the Pickleball Summer Slam Tournament on Sunday, July 30, and Mariners tryouts in August.
Do you know someone who may be interested in joining one of New Jersey's Top Workplaces? We would like to know them too! Refer a friend, family member, or someone you know that would be a good fit for any of our open positions (including full-time, part-time, and seasonal positions). If they are hired for a position, YOU receive a $500 Y credit after the employee completes 90 days of employment. Search for open positions here.
